I worked with Isabelle at Northwestern National Insurance. She was a very sweet person with a lot of funny stories, as I found out on our many walk breaks together. She did keep in touch with me for awhile after I moved to Colorado. I am very sorry to read of her passing. My sincerest condolences to the family.

Momecka, Thank You for always being there for me. We will truly miss seeing your smiling face and visiting you every week. Oliver will miss singing pat-a-cake with you but I will always remind him of where he learned it and continue to sing it to him. Some of the best memories I have of you are when I was younger and you helped raise me. You would take me to feed the ducks at Gage park, take me to some of the best movies which I still watch today, and pick me up from school. We would always play board games at your house like Monopoly, UNO, and trivial pursuit. I always LOVED going over to your house and smelling freshly baked cookies in the oven. You always talked about the day you would go to heaven and how wonderful it would be. You always said you had some questions for God on why the world is the way it is. Now you are at peace and have the answers you were looking for. Thank you for hanging in there after your cancer diagnosis for two years so that Oliver could get to know his great-grandma. You always put on a brave face and although you were in pain you were there for us all till the very end. Thank you. I am forever grateful to have had you as my grandma. You were the best! Love and miss you dearly.
