I will miss my dear Aunt Ida terribly. I have such wonderful memories of her, our summers spent at the shore on Wildwood Avenue and in later years taking her on vacation with us every summer.

Ida was a great asset to her family, church and community. I have fond memories of greeting her while serving as Cantor and Lector at Sacred Heart. She was a one of a kind woman; classy and deserving of respect. Always kind and lovely; my day would not have been complete without her greeting. My prayers are with Susan, Mary and the rest of her family as they go forward.
Love and peace of Christ,
Maureen

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I did not know Ida personally, but knew of Ida who was an angel to my sister-law Olga, who was wonderful to Olga, as her other friends from Sacred Heart. What a blessing to have been a friend. Nothing at all was too much for Ida to do for you if you needed it. What a wonderful lady. God Bless you Ida. RIP
