I´M SO SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF HELEN, FRANNY & DONALD. THEY WERE MY NEIGHBORS FOR MANY YEARS. I LIVED ON THE THIRD FLOOR, THEY LIVED ON THE SECOND FLOOR. HELEN COULD BAKE LIKE NO OTHER. EVERY DAY THE BACK HALLWAY WAS A PLEASURE TO WALK INTO. HELEN ALWAYS SHARED HER BAKING ITEMS. HER POLISH COOKING. YUMMMM YUMMM. SO SAD FOR THE THREE OF THEM. PRAYER´S FOR ALL. R.I.P.
