Dear Lemke Family,
I am so sorry that Mom has passed. However there is much rejoicing in heaven with Mom and Dad being together again. My grandson was baptized on Sunday ( David's new little boy) and try as hard as I did to steal away for a while, it just didn't materialize. I work during the week and today,Monday, I had to be in from 7:30 until 1:00p.m. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Nothing can compare to the PolishFest that's taking place in heaven right now. The polkas are playing and Terri and Bud are dancing again. My prayers....
