Cheryl,
Don't know if you remember me but I worked with your Mom at Borg-Warner. She was a mother figure to me, saw me thru good times and bad, and I always looked up to her. She was a wonderful lady, and I will pray for all of you.

Dear Cheryl, Karen, DeeDee - my heart goes out to all of you during this time. We just visited with mom this past summer when we were in Chicago visiting our children. She was so looking foward to moving to the Lutheran Home. I'm glad that she had a short time there. And Cheryl, I know that this has to be really tough on you. Your mom often talked to us when we visited on how blessed she was that you were there to take care of her. In fact, she told us that the two of you fought like sisters but you couldn't do without eachother. What a blessing you were to her, especially these past few years. Please let us know if there's anything we can do.
Blessings, The Bonners

Cheryl, DeeDee and Karen - I don't know that you would remember me but I have fond memories of going to your house with my dad, Fred Piszczek, when I was younger. I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I hope you are all well. You are in my prayers.

Cheryl, Denise and Karen, it is just by chance that I saw that your mother, my old friend, has passed, and my heart is heavy. She was like a mother to me during my days at Borg-Warner. You are not forgotten and forever in my prayers.

Cheryl, Denise, Karen and families,
We've known your family for most of our lives through our parents - Marian and Walter McNeely. As children, we always looked forward to the "bank crowd" parties. Your mom was definitely the life of those parties, and they wouldn't have been the same without her bubbly personality and creative ideas. She will truly be missed, but we know she's in Heaven with your Dad, our Mom, Gene Graff and Leif Handstad (bank crowd members). You're all in our thoughts and prayers.
