Dear Aunt Jan and Family,
I was so saddened to hear about Uncle Mike's passing. I enjoyed reading the biography you wrote about Uncle Mike's family very much. Uncle Mike carried on his family legacy with dignity and honor and I know he will be sorely missed. I am very sorry I could not make it to the funeral but please know that our entire family has been, and will continue to pray for Uncle Mike and the rest of the Gramza Family.
God Bless,
Joe

Dear Mrs. Gramza and family: I don't think you know how much your husband and dad meant to my father. I know that our family will miss him a lot. We grew up knowing you and it has been such a pleasure doing that. My mom also appreciated Mr. Gramza coming over on Thursday to say the rosary with or I should say to my father. Every now and then he would try to say a Hail Mary with Mr. Gramza. They went through a lot together, they were great friends!!! Thanks for all of the times that Mrs. & Mrs. Gramza got together for dinner or just an ice cream cone at Graters. I know that the Lord is holding him in the palms of His hands and he is out of all pain and discomfort.
Thanks
Love
