Annie PARADA

My sincere condolences to the Parada families with the passing of your Mother. Please find comfort in knowing others are thinking of you during this difficult time.

Baba was a wonderful Great Grand Mother to Catherine her great grand daughter. She always included me at family functions, we were very close. She leaves behind Ukrainian traditions and rituals that Catherine will carry with her all her life. Thank you Baba for all you shared with us, for making such a difference in our lives. We Love you and will miss you...

Dear Marie
Although it has been many years since we taught together at B.W. I have never forgotten the gentle, sweet person that is your mom. She had such an aura about her and was so welcoming to me when I spent time with you when we were both teaching and organizing our next steps in life. I hope her later years were peaceful as she richly deserved. What a loss. I hope the memories of her will be a comfort I know my memories will also be treasured of her, her picture was the way I remembered her.

Peace to you and your family

Dear Dan, Maria and family,
My deepest sympathy to you and your families and to Uncle Bill--loosing the matriarch of your family leaves a huge hole in the heart, and in the family! You have to remember all the wonderful times you had together!! I especially remember her great warm smile!
Vichnaya Pamyat!

Dear Maria, Danny and family, I want to extend my deepest condolences to you on the passing of Auntie Annie. I will always hold wonderful memories of her and how sweet, and genuine she was. She truly was one of a kind, exuding love, happiness, and always treated my brother and I, as though we were her grandsons. As a matter of fact, she would say to us that to her, we were her grandsons. I'll never forget how she would make me laugh with her witty remarks, followed by her signature wink. She was a ball to be around, and I will certainly miss her. I'm sorry that I won't be able to attend the funeral, because I'm out of the country at the moment, but I will continue to pray for her, my grandmother, and uncle Steve. She is at peace now, and has her brothers and sisters to guide her though to the next life. As it is thanksgiving weekend here in the states, it's apropos that I feel very thankful to have had her in my life growing up. I'll always cherish those memories of her contagious smile. With much love, and my deepest sympathy in your bereavement.
