To Nancy and the Stromski Family. I am so sorry to hear about your mom and grandma. I know she will be truly missed by all. I wish I had know about your loss sooner. But since caring really isn't bound by time or place I want to take this chance to tell you how sorry we all are. Our prayers go out to all of you.
