To the Paschke Family:
While I never knew Mr. Paschke, I worked with both Marie and Randy for several years. I didn't have to know Marie long to see just how much she loved both of her parents. I know how close you all are and can only imagine how hard this must be for you. I will keep your family in my prayers. Stay strong and keep the faith.
