She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Surviving are her daughter, Agnieszka De Faria; her son and daughter-in-law, Jaroslaw Gryczynski and Lucyna Gryczynska; her cherished grandchildren, Helenka Gryczynska, Anna Gryczynska, and Dante De Faria; as well as many loving extended family members and friends.
