Dear Jay and all of the family,
It has been heartfelt keeping in touch, have slacked off; busy but the nudge came and I viewed TLO. Am very happy I did not miss the opportunity to reach out and express how very much this world has lost, included is my deep felt grief but Maruska will be with my family at Oak Lawn but her unbridled spirit is now soaring joyously to heights never before imagined. My deepest sympathy and love to all knowing this pioneer is in good hands. Her quips and quotes will be missed. God bless you all.
