Our sympathy to the families of Mariam Sheronick. The few times we had the opportunity to visit with her, she was very kind and truly enjoyed to cook. We thoroughly enjoyed her meat pies, flat bread, and cabbage rolls - she made the best!

My deepest condolences to the family of Mariam Sheronick. The Sheronick's made a difference in this community and made a meaningful contribution to my neighborhood through their grocery store and Miriam's dedication to the children through her service in the school cafeteria. Many will miss her, and hold fond memories of her.
