Dear Dee & Michael: We have kept your father in our prayers as my sister, Yvonne, has kept us posted on your father’s condition. As you know, Baba Zdinak always said that if someone died during the Easter Season, they go stright to Heaven! So your father is sharing the joy of being with Christ our Savior and Redeemer. None the less, the loss of a parent is profound. May our prayers support you through this time of grieving. Work commitments and distance keep us from being able to be with you at this time in Weirton. Thus, you shall be in our constant thoughts over the next days. Sincerely, Stas` & Rafael
To ypur family – Deepest sympathy with the passing of your father & loved one. As Stas mentioned “Easter season” is a blessed time to pass. The Tuchalski family wish the best for your family in the days ahead. Prayers are going your way.
Dee and Mike, We understand the loss you must feel now that Dee’s father has been called home, but take comfort in the memories of his life and his love for you and the grand kids. You will all meet again in God’s good time, in a place free of pain and suffering, where all is perfect in the His sight. I grew up in a town made safer by the presence of your father, be it in his reserve uniform or on his radio watch patrols. And I never knew a St. Mary’s function could be held without him present. I smile now as I reflect on those memories of days gone by in Weirton. Rita and I wish you comfort and peace as you take your father’s faith and pass it on to the next generation God has entrusted to you.
So sorry to hear the news. My prayers are with you. Love you guys, Uncle Ed
