I just wanted to say that Sister Kolowinski is sure a neat lady. I had the opportunity of knowing her through church. When I was a teenager, she showed a bunch of girls how to make these pretty beaded christmas tree ornaments. I never learned how to make them very well, but I still have one that she made and then gave to me. I'll also always remember the time when we took a bunch of the older ladies from church to the fair to see the sights and exhibits. We each had one person we stuck with. I had Sister Kolowinski. I wheeled her around in a wheelchair, not that she always needed it, and we looked at all we could see. When we stopped to get something to eat, she left her chair to buy her food. I sat down in the wheelchair for fun. When she came back, she told me not to move, she didn't need to sit there, so I ate my food in the wheelchair while she sat on the bench. After we finished, I went to stand up but she told me she'd push me a while, walking was good for her. Imagine the looks we got, this cute old lady pushing a teenage girl around the fair in a wheelchair! We both found the humor in that. She's a great lady and is on to the next chapter of her eternal life. I'm thrilled for her and will be happy to see her again.
