The family will receive friends after the service. Mrs. Mahorsky died April 7, 2013.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Edward Unangst Jr. She was born August 2, 1942, in Quakertown, PA. She was an avid gardener who spent countless hours in the garden.

This is a terrible loss and know our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Todd, it's been a long time since our days at FCHS. This isn't the ideal circumstance to say hello & ask how you've been doing. Your parents were wonderful people that touched and brighten many lives. They will be missed and remembered daily. My heart hurts for you and your family at this time and I pray that with time, peace and understanding will be had by all.

The sorrow of the faithful
is not that of permanent loss,
but the tender sense of sadness
that comes in saying good-bye for now
to someone we love.
May today's sorrow give way
to the peace and
comfort of God's love.
