Dear Mrs. Rembish, So sorry to hear of Mr. Rembish's passing. The two of you were such great parents of Cindy and Mike. I was good friends with your daughter, Cindy during high school at STA. In fact, Cindy was in our wedding. I was always jealous of the life Cindy led and loved being at your house when we were teenagers. He was a great man and you should be proud. I hope he didn't suffer much. Prayers for you Katie and your family at this time. Sincerely, Kathy (Kane) & Bob Vallina
