Our mother was a devoted and loving wife to our father for 61 years. She was a loving, caring and dear mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She loved being around her family and holidays. We will never forget what a wonderful cook our dear mother was. Those holiday hams, chicken paprikash and dumplings, chop suey and home made chicken soup; and all the holiday baking, homemade nut rolls, kolacky and Christmas cookies. You made such a deep impression in all of our lives. You were always smiling till your very last day of life. Our mother was there for everyone when they needed her. You were our angel on earth Mom. Now God has taken our angel, please take care of our mother like she has taken care of all of us.
