Rev. Edward S. Maraczewski

Father Mars remains very close to my heart - I cherish the memories I have of him and thank God that he allowed him to be in my life. As long as I live he will live in my heart.

May Gods merciful love and the love of family & friends sustain you through your sorrow.

(Isa. 41:10)

Father Mara. I was blessed to have known you. Thank you for your amazing friendship. I will always remember your caring and loving spirit. I strengthened my spiritual walk with God with your guidance and I will be eternally grateful. God bless and keep you as you are with him now.

Forever young! Rest in peace Fr. Mara. You served your people well. Pat and Mary Ann Dutcher Waukegan, Illinois

Sorry, I will be unable to attend the services due to my failing eyesight and unavailability of transportation. Father Ed will be greatly missed, as he was a wonderful person. Our friendship spanned over 60 years at St. Andrew's parish in Calumet City, Illinois

Fr. Mara. Your kindness and smile will be trly missed. Say hello to the rest of the Crivitz crowd up there that have been waiting for you.

My dear sweet Fr. Mara:
Thank you for teaching me the Roman Catholic Religion and giving me my Bible. I will miss you deeply.

He will be missed.
