Condolences to Mr.Kuncewicz and his entire family. As a friend of Cas growing up in Bridegeport, I have fond memories of his mother. She was always very kind to me and made me feel a part of the family. I'll always remember her clever sense of humor and her great Polish food.

I met Mary in my dental office she was a care taker for an elderly woman. Mary was kind and loving. One day she wore a pin, it was a fly, made from amber. I commented on how beautiful it was and she took it off and stuck the pin in my hand, made me bleed and gave me the pin to keep. I never forgot the gesture or her warmth. When my Mom became ill this year the Nursing home gave me Marys name to call for quality care. I called and did not know Mary was ill. People touch our lives in small ways or in short moments, I won't forget Mary and I still have her pin and tell the story about her sticking me to anyone that is worthy. What a wonderful angel she will be. God bless you all.
