Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of your loss. Your entire family is in our prayers. Lisa Waniewski

Barbara,
I remember your family growing up while attending Our Lady of the Rosary church and of course you as we are the same age. Your parents were such lovely people. What a wonderful life your mom had! You were blessed to have her for so many years! My sympathies to you and your family.

I was fortunate to have grown up across the street from the Woishnis's and have many found memoires of Jean and the Woishnis family. I will always remember the cookie jar in the kitchen where I could always count on a homemade toll house cookie and in the summer eating watermelon on their porch. I will also never forget breaking my leg while sledding behind their house and having Jean take care of me until the ambulance came.

Jean and Joe were some of the hardest working people I knew...

Dear family of Jean, I was so blessed to know your mom for a long time and got to know most of her family, as well. Such a devoted, loving family. Jean was a dear lady and will be missed by all who knew her, imagine 100 years. Rip , dear Jean, and your loved ones are waiting with open arms to welcome you to your heavenly home.

Dear Woishnis family although I never met Jean, I am close friends with Carol, I am very sorry for your loss. Know that she is surrounded by love with her guides and angels.
With Warmth and Sympathy,

Jean was not only a great nurse but she also was a joy to work along side of. I'm sure God has welcomed her into heaven.

Expressing my most sincere sympathy to Jean's loving family.

Auntie Jean was one of a kind she taught me to reach for the stars by watching her and Uncle Joe raise up 8 kids and then I came along in the summer to make it 9 but I treasure those summers and all the trips to the beaches and Riverside Dollar Days and the toll house cookies that were to die for. May she rest in peace but I know that there were many angels up there waiting for her to come on in to celebrate her passing. She will be missed but not forgotten she lives in my heart.

What a long and loving life! Carol and family you are so blessed to have had her for so long! Loss is heavy no matter when and an elder loss means a history is lost so keep her alive and well and celebrate her life!
