Dear Gail,
I would like to share with you, a most joyful visit we had with your Mother before her passing. She lit up when my brother Ray, her godson and I entered the room. We talked about cooking borsch, perogies and cabbage rolls. Lena shared with us her secret ingredient. All the talking about food made us hungry. We laughed and reminisced of the times she spent with our Mother, Mary. They had known each other for 67 years, now that was a true friendship. We had brought some pictures and Lena was having a wonderful time sharing her memories. We laughed a lot. My brother Ron and his wife Ruth later visited with your Mother and they too had just a wonderful time. Lena was a lady of personal warmth and great charm. When it came time to leave, she considerately wished us all a safe trip home. We came to visit your Mother, and we left with a beautiful gift from her. A gift of joy and love. She made us feel so special. Your mother is an angel and may you take comfort in knowing she is watching over you.
No person is ever truly alone.
Those who live no more,
whom we loved,
Echo still within our thoughts.
Our words, our hearts
And what they did
And what they were
Becomes a part of all that we are.
FOREVER
Gail, our thoughts and prayers are with you. May you draw comfort from the time you enjoyed together.
God Bless,
The Zaparanuik†™s
Ray, Dennis, Darlene, Marlene, Richard, Ron & our families
