I love Asia. She did not like to receive, but only give, to me, my kids, and my dad. She used tough love, so much love, so much tough. She loved my dad with all her heart and loved to feed him her amazing food. Ill forever be grateful for the care she gave him and my kids the last 20 years. Ill miss her forever, she was one in a million.

Asia was one of the most kind loving individuals that I've known. Full of life and happiness. We had the pleasure of meeting her at the flea market in Belleville when her booth was near ours. We enjoyed talking about Polish pottery, comics, and her family. You have our sympathy, John.
