Your passing brought back so many happy memories--the time spent at your house planning all the St.Chris youth meetings/programs. Your irreverent sense of humor, salty remarks, etc. will never be forgotten. And your children: how you loved them, what wonderful kids they were/are. Thank you for so many wonderful years of laughter and friendship.
Dick Pfaff & family.

Your smile will be remembered by all whose lives you touched even for a moment and will shine as brightly now among us in the starlit night as you fly free into the divine. In loving memory.
