Thank you Grandmom for always being there for me. As dark as my days may have gotten, you were my rock. I knew I could count on you for a smile or a kind word. I cherished the time we spent together. I love you and will miss you very much. Love, Cynthia

In the few years that I knew Marie, she was a wonderful lady. She had me calling her Mom in no time. She was very independent on doing things herself. She never wanted help doing anything. She would make her own bed, dress herself, walk around in her wheelchair, etc. She was the candy lady at Fair Acres. Angelo & I would bring her candy every weekend and sometimes she would get fussy with it as certain people would want certain types of candy and we'd have to find that kind and bring it the next time. She used to save certain kinds of candy in baggies to give to certain people at the nursing home too. She would keep the candy jar at the nurses station filled as well as a dish on her tray table at the end of her bed. She would always make up bags of bananas, apples, oranges, cookies, etc. and some magazines sometimes for us to take home with us or to give to the Grandkids of things she didn't eat at her breakfast/lunch or dinner. She loved playing bingo and got upset when she didn't win anything. She was thrilled when she would win a few quarters. She loved doing her circle a words books. She also liked doing some crafts. Angelo & I would take her out in the break room or out on the patio and play Gin rummy. She liked playing that game too & beat us several times too. For a 98 yr old lady, she sure didn't look her age and was so sharp minded. We thought for sure she'd live to be 100. She had her moments though when she would call us several times a day or in a week to thank us for bringing the candy or to say something to us. She'd forget that she already told us this 2 or 3 times already. Angelo was kidding with her & told her we were going to get married and she thought that was great. Angelo didn't expect her to say that as we had only been together for about a year or so at the time. She liked me very much. At least she knows that someday maybe we'll get married. : I'm glad we had the chance to spend time with her on Tues. She went a bit to soon for us and will be missed very much. My deepest Sympathies to all the family. Love Joy

Angelo, What wonderful memories, you must have of all the times with your Mom, that you can look back on and smile and think good thoughts. I know you'll miss her but, your family and friends and the memories of her, will give you happiness and from time to time, bring a smile to your face when you think back to that funny thing she said or did. Sorry for your loss. Kathy Mucha
