Unger Family,
So sorry to hear about your Mom. I was able to attend the mass today and Bob & Jeannie's remembrances brought back fond memories of being around your house in high school and college. Sending my thoughts and prayers to all of you.

I was deeply saddened to hear of your moms dying.I have never been the same since she opened her heart and home and family to me in 1974. You all were as my own family, truly a blessing to me, at atime in my life when I needed a family the most. Words cannot convey my affection for all of you and the sorrow I feel on your behalf as well as my own. May Gods love continue to bless you through this difficult time. love John Yeager

Very sorry to hear about your mom. She was a really nice lady and she'll be greatly missed. Our dad also passed away on Saturday. The old neighborhood just won't be the same anymore without them.

She has enriched many lives during her life. Guiding and caring for, not only her family, but the many friends that traveled through her door. I'm a better person for having known the Unger family and my ‘Aunt' Peggy will always be in my heart. My prayer is that the family finds strength to get through the days that follow knowing that she has left a legacy of love and faith with us all.
