Hey Mike , Jenny, Frank, Sue, Kathy, Tom and Pat, Life seldom makes sense, but we can rest in the consolation that for all things in life, with God at our side, there is a time and a season, under His heavens. Maria smiled with her eyes, and her laugh was contagious. Thinking of each of you in a special way, Julianne, Julie, and Jill Skrycki

It's been many years since I've been in contact with this side of my Kline extended family. A perfect example of how like gets away from us. I have very fond memories of Maria and her sisters taking time as teenagers to entertain me when my family would visit their cottage. I especially remember learning to water ski. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
