Im sad for all of you at this time. I credit your wife/mom with giving my girls their love for reading.

As adults they have spoken of Mrs Narczewski being the best reader of all. I just knew her as kind and quiet. My sympathies.

Pat was a very special person, she welcomed us into her home and treated us as if we were family. Fran and I always referred to Jack and Pat as "Mon & Dad" because that is how they treated us. She will be deeply missed by all who's life was touched by her in one way or another. We are so sorry for your loss.
