Susan, So many memories, so many laughs, so many enthusiastic discussions (arguments/verbal battles to the unknowing!). New Years eves for so many years and an everlasting favorite memory was our tithing "discussion" when I asked: Is that before or after taxes? A good, caring man, a role model, a caring and thoughtful husband, a good and faithful servant, one that brings a smile to our faces, one that we are proud to call friend. We love you, Sue! Janet and Joe Pilewski
