Mrs. Sanderlin is the mother of my sisler-in-law Lisa Rybaczuk. Some of my fond memories were inviting my mother Mary Rybaczuk and I to several Thanksgiving dinners. The food was always good. We enjoyed sitting and talking to one another. She met my daughter Lauren Demko at the age of 2. She was very kind and generous to my brother Stan. She will be dearly missed.
