To Maria's family and Joseph we offer our condolences on her sudden passing. She was warm and friendly whenever we spent time together. My favorite memory is of Maria at a Fasching party dressed as Little Red Riding Hood complete with cape and basket of goodies. We pray that the happy memories you have of her will wipe away the sorrow you feel now.

Maria was the kindest person in this world. I got to know her through the Lehigh Saengerbund and I just loved being around her, hearing stories and what that club meant to her. Condolences to her children and especially to Joseph who was her dance partner at our events.
