To the Kornacki family,

I'm very sorry for your loss. For much of my life up to about the age of 16, my family lived on Maple Street two floors above the Kornacki family. I have a photo of myself, Joey Kornacki, a neighbor by the name of Darlene and the Kornacki family pet, Mort. I don't remember Jeannette probably because she was one of the oldest but I do remember Joey who was nearer to my age, a brother Teddy and Nina who MAY have been married into the family. I also remember a story about the WWI service of Mr. Kornacki who served with Sgt.York.

Growing up in those days(50's)folks knew one another much better than they do now. More's the pity.

May Jeanette rest in peace and return to her family. May her family remember the good times always.

My most sincere condolences to the family. Consider just one of God's many expressions of care for us: You will call me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:12) Yes, our Heavenly Father has always been willing to listen to those who humbly turn to him in prayer. May your heartfelt prayers to God bring you peace and comfort in your time of sorrow.
