We send our deepest condolences to your entire family. Frank, our special thoughts to you in this difficult time.

January 28, 2015

Dear David, Maryl, Kate & Josh and the entire Wesolowski family:
We were very saddened in Kansas City to hear of the passing of your dear Mother/Grandmother Ann. While there is a great degree of thanks in the time you were all able to spend together during these past Thanksgiving & Christmas holidays, reflecting, reminiscing, and sharing the love you have with your mother, the loss of her love and her presence in your lives for all these many years will be difficult to overcome. We all share in your grief and sorrow at loss of such a vibrant lady, mother and grandmother! Yet, we are sure that you were all inspired at her tremendous strong will and loving determination to remain with you as long as possible and endure the Cross she had to bear during these last 12 plus months.
May her life, her love and and her example, be the lasting memories that you will Cherish for the rest of your lives, as you come together to "Celebrate" the love that she had and the life she lived, and also knowing that she will be reunited with her loving husband in Heaven.
God bless you all during this difficult time.
-With Sincere sympathy,
Gregory & Michele Falen & Family
Overland Park, Kansas

I am thinking of all of you. Your Mom was a very special lady, and I was so glad to have spent some time with her. She has the most adoring and loving family. This is a true testament to both parents. God bless your family, it was a true honor to know your mom. Love, Susie Schemmel
