Sending love to Jane, DeWitt, and all of the Cook family at this time of loss. I am glad to have known Martha toward the end of her life as she traversed the landscape of Alzheimer's with grace, dignity, and kindness and to have witnessed Jane's strength and caring devotion to her mother.

Mrs. Novak was a wonderful neighbor in Lemont, for many years, and lifelong friend. Many memories, of vacations with our families, to Northern Wisconsin. A very compassionate, and quiet friend of my parents, who loved to play games, and cards. A wonderful Mom, who raised great kids, in Jane & Bill. May she Rest with almighty God, in eternal peace!!
