Mrs. Motsko, Skinny, Joan & Family:
I have many fond memories of the good laughs and times spent in your home. One particular memory was the good time we had at the beach. Once when Sig was there we were all sitting around talking and all of a sudden Chip couldn't find his watch and we searched everywhere. All of a sudden Sig took off her hat and she had hidden it under the hat. We all laughed until we cried. You were a great mother!
May peace be with you and your family.
Fondly,
Kay ( Thomas ) Sherbrick

I am so sorry to hear of the death of your mother, grandmother. I am sure you do not remember me. But I am the youngest daughter of Stephen and Anna Motsko. I do remember your mother and father coming up to Beaver Meadows and me going to your home as a child. I see she did live a long life and I am sure a good life. I am unable to attend services as I cannot get off from work. I send my sincerest condolences. Mary A. Motsko-Rayno
