The world has truly lost a fine lady. You were a wonderful role model for me growing up. I will never forget the fashion show you took me to or the snappy little dress you talked my mom into buying for me! I remember all the kind things you said to me..You will always be my Fairy Princess, Peace be with you and Allen.



Love always,

Joyce Garstkiewicz-Hale

I remember the time you and Allen took me and Mike to the "Monkees" concert. Afterward we went to a Chinese restaurant downtown where I shocked you by ordering a "hamburger & fries!"

You were always gracious and kind to me and my family, may you rest in heaven with God our father.

Some of the many fun chats and talks we shared over the years was Sunning in Boca. You are one lady that will be missed. Fly with the Angels. Steve

As a long time friend and sometime shopping companion, you will be remembered as a very personal part of our neighborly relationship.

Love you, Libby G.
