Pam,
I can't believe it. Wish we had been closer when we all lived in Ohio. I know the Ostrowski and Lewanski families are sadden by his passing. He was a good man, husband and father. I'm glad for you and the children. Guess we are getting to the age of leaving this world and starting a new life with the Lord. May God keep and bless you always. Love, Rose Ann Cornish.
