I am sorry I was unable to attend Sue's funeral today. I worked with her approximately 23 years and have known all three of you girls by seeing you at the office and hearing about you from Sue. We have been out of touch for the last few years but remembered each other with Christmas cards every year. She was a loving and helpful person and loved her family very much. May God be with all of you and Tony during this trying time.

Sincerely

My thoughts and prayers are with the Family of Winnie Prebynski. Although I never knew Winnie, I know that she must have been a remarkable woman. Her daughter and my friend, Faye, is also a remarkable woman which gives credit to her mother and how she raised her children with love and guidance. Winnie was loved deeply by her family and I know they will miss her.
