Alice Marie Way
July 25, 2025
I am Alice Marie Way, First Cousin to Bill Rokos. Our Rokos Grandparents brought forth nine progeny, all of whom survived, and who were fantastic people. As I write this, there are four first cousins still surviving: myself, my brother Ken, my cousin Alfred, and my Cousin LeRoy (Lee). All of whom have children.
For the last several years, Bill and I have been corresponding, mostly by letter and telephone, as Bill preferred People contact rather that computer contact. During these communications, we both laughed a lot, He had a stupendous sense of humor, and wrote witty and wonderful letters. Telephone conversations were long (and hilarious at times). I will miss them terribly.
Many Years ago, my Mom (a Rokos: Ann Rokos Way) was the 8th of the nine siblings, and was Bill´s Aunt. One year, Mom and I went to visit with her sister (Elsie Rokos Knoch), in Florida. During that visit, Bill, and his dearly beloved wife Jean, came up to see My Mom and our Aunt Elsie where she was residing at the time. Pictures are great!!! Lovely Day!
I will mess our conversations, Bill, and our letters. I sincerely think your creative Christmas cards are the best I´ve ever seen; thank you for giving those gems to us. Rest Peacefully.

My name is Kathi Weber Spencer. My dad was Gerald William Weber. I had the wonderful opportunity of becoming pen pals with cousin Bill after my Mom passed in 2022. My dad and Bill were cousins, but more like brothers, because they were both only children. We vacationed in Orlando this past December and drove to Leesburg to meet Bill. He gave us a tour of his beautiful place, we then had lunch together. I am so happy my husband and I took the time to spend the afternoon with Bill. It was great to meet him and I know my Dad and Bill must be catching up. My dad was Bill and Jeans best man. May they all rest peacefully.
