To Mrs Kush's Family ~
Your Mother sas the sweetest, kindest lady I have ever met ! She was a great friend to my Grammy (Mary Poandl) -- it was the cutest thing to watch her at my grammys 95th birthday party 2 years ago helping my grammy with her food and things -- those who just met her that day commented so highly of her ! And to me ... her comfort after my young son died was priceless to me. She was truly one remarkable lady and we were lucky to ahve known her !
