I couldn't attend Grandmom Sadowski's funeral because of a prior committment I had made but wanted to be there very badly. I've thought alot about her sincer her passing and remember a couple of things about her I wanted to share. Grandmom Sadowski made the best homeade iced tea I ever had to this day; she always fed you if you stopped by her house to visit; she let me walk Tank any time I wanted to; she gave great hugs; she always had a smile on her face; treated us like grandkids even though we weren't her grandkids. Just wanted you all to know how much she meant to me and she will be missed. Love Tracy (Rost) McNichols

I am so sorry for your loss. Joan and I grew up together on Arbor St. I thought of her all the time and decided to google her. Joan was my best friend thru all the teen age years.We suffered the loss of children together. I will miss her, and pray for her and all of the family. Her and I will meet again and one day. Sincerely Maryann
