Maryann and Joanne I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mother is such a part of my childhood memories. She was always so welcoming of us kids coming to play inside your house in the Winter and putting up with us in the summer having fun in the pool. Remember we use to do "whirlpools" and we always got yelled at that we'd break the pool? Lol! Such good times back then! Her and your Dad were wonderful people. I will always remember your warm, cozy house. The coal stove and all the good food. Your Mom made the best Rice Krispie treats also! I am so thankful for your entire family and that I was lucky enough to grow up with you guys! Love, Roseanne "Hodakowski" Pryor

My deepest condolences to the family during this most difficult time. There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory, because those who pass on are precious in his eyes. Psalms 116:15
