Mrs. Bartos was such a lovely woman. I enjoyed meeting her at the highlands and loved her stories she had to tell. God Bless you Mrs. Bartos.

I was reading about your dear mother and wanted to offer my condolences to the family during this difficult time. This thought in Psalms 119:28 is asking God to give strength in this time of need. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.

To the Bartos Family,
"The span of life is 70 or 80 if one is especially strong." We can truly say this is true of Eva. May your hearts be filled with loving memories of the beautiful times you shared together as you celebrate a life
well - lived. ( Psalms 90:10 )

Michael & Sam Bartos, God put you on my heart today, as I found a letter from 2002 from you Michael. I was thinking about Chanukah starting today & lifting you & Sam up in prayer. I looked your name up online & found your mom's obituary. May God comfort and give you peace. I hadn't heard your mom had died but it seems she had a long & good life and has passed on to her reward. I wish you all blessings and peace and will light a candle in my house tonight in your mother's honor. God Bless and protect you. Nina Spencer Marasco

I was blessed with the opportunity to help care for Eva over the last 3 years. only god knows the special place in my heart she holds. we had such an amazing bond and could talk about practically anything. I'll never forget all the memories and jokes me and Eva shared. she always reminded me how she couldn't live without her neck pillow I gave her and it would always make me laugh. she is truly an angel and will be deeply missed

Over the last 3 years I have helped care for this beautiful soul. She knew just want to say when you were having a bad day. She always asked about my family, asked about my family functions. I shared so much with her that she became apart of my life and was like family to me. I will miss her deeply.

Dear Michael, Jody and Family,
I had the pleasure of meeting your mother while I was food service supervisor in personal care. I also had the pleasure of meeting you during one of your visits. Eva was the most fascinating woman. We shared my memories and laughs of days gone by. She was so proud of her family. I have many favorite memories, but one that I always chuckled was when she would call me over and say, "What's in this?!" They surely never made it like this at the Crystal Restaurant. May her memory be eternal. God Bless.
