My condolences to Rhea's family. I worked with her at the Department of Human Services and she was a very dear friend to me. She made working there so much nicer. I wished I would have gotten in touch with her during the last few years. Rest in peace with our Father, Rhea. Love your friend, LaVerne Jankowski

My deepest condolences to the Gumbels. Another great member of the STA family has now rejoined other STA folks in heaven. I have known your mom since growing up as a student, altar boy, choir boy adult etc. Mrs. Gumbel is the epitome of a strong Catholic/Christian woman. May she rest in peace.

Bryant and families, please accept our deepest condolences on your loss. St. Thomas the Apostle parrish brings many fond memories of close friendships as we grew up, studied, served as alter boys and our mothers worked together in the school office during the mid 50's. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sincerely,
Cindy and John Kappel
