Dear Hamerski family,
Your dear Mom and Dad were very special friends to my parents, Dave and Peggy Rabenhorst, for over 50 years. I will always remember Mrs. Hamerski as a sweet and cheerful lady who brightened a room with her presence. We can take comfort in knowing that she is reunited with those dear ones who have gone before. May our Gracious God wrap His arms of love around you and bring you His comfort and peace. I send my loving blessings to you all.
Barbara Rabenhorst Potts

Doing what she did best! Entertaining her Great Grandchildren.

Thinking of the Hamerski family at this truly tough time. I am sure you are smiling down at your gorgeous grandchildren and great grandchildren and wrapping your angel wings around them.

To the Hamerski family (and especially Mary Viands). Words do not come close to expressing how sorry I am for your loss. But know that every time you think of her, she lives on. May God add a blessing to your lives during this difficult time.

Love and miss you Aunt Cleo. I know you and my Mom and Aunt Dolores and Aunt Madge are spending this Christmas singing around the piano, Let There Be Peace On Earth. You are all finally together again for eternity.

We will certainly miss our Aunt Cleo. Knowing that she is at peace & with Uncle Hugh and her sisters & brothers in-laws. Their family was so close and brought so many wonderful memories to their children as we were growing up. I always will remember our visits with Uncle Hugh and Aunt Cleo. Two or three years each February they would rent a place for a couple of weeks near our home in Florida. We had a great time shopping, eating out, golfing, & fishing & BBQs at my home. Those wonderful memories I will always treasure.
