Dear Jennie & family, I was so sorry to learn of Paul's passing. You had a long and wonderful life together and raised a lovely family. You, personally, have had a lot to endure in the past couple years, first your dad and then your mom's passing and now Paul. Just know that as long as you keep your eyes on Jesus, He will get you through this sad time. I share in your grief. You and your family will be in my prayers. Love and Blessings. Marion Bednarek

Mr. Sukalich was a wonderful man. He was always willing to take us kids fishing and his love of the water was infectious. He will be missed by all. I will pray for him and the entire Sukalich family.
