Brunick Family,
Your mom was a neat lady and friend of my moms. She was my teacher in High School and I remember the different outfits that she wore when she was teaching us about different countries and made it more interesting. Sorry for your loss.

Thank you to all the people who cared and helped me and Amy with Mom, Including the good people at Heartland Hospice, Joyce, Amy, Sharon, Betty and Terry. I'm glad we brought her home from the nursing home, I got to spend every day with her, and she got to be in her own home, with her family that cared about her, at her side. I feel I made a difference, and repayed her for always being there for me

To the family of Doris Brunick. I had your mother for a teacher at Millvale High School in the 60s and must say she was one of my favorite teachers. I can still to this day remember the lines from a play that she had me memorize. She will be sadly missed but not forgotten.
Please accept my deepest sympathy.

Please accept my sympathy and know that your Mom will always be remembered as the great lady and teacher that she was by the students of Millvale High School.
