Dear Cervenka Family, I had the great pleasure of knowing your mom for many years, performing her monthly blood testing at Illinois Heart and Vascular. She always was so thoughtful at each vist, asking about my family who once lived in St Joseph, Michigan or bringing me fresh flowers from her garden,candy on Halloween(and a birthday present)Easter, and Valentines Day, even stuffed animals and figurines to decorate my window sill. She will be greatly missed. I looked forward to her visits with us. I lost my father-in-law Dec 22,and will add your family to my prayers.

Dear Cervenka Family, on behalf of my mother Agnes and myself, we'd like to offer our deepest sympathy. Your mom was a dear friend to all and no matter how ill she was or how poorly she was feeling, she never once forgot to make everyone around her feel loved and special ! She'll be missed by many. There isn't a doubt in our minds that she's with the angels,... now "they" are in good company ! Love, Darlene and Agnes Mikulec and family
