Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never, ever the same. Although it’s difficult today to see beyond the sorrow. May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow. (Author Unknown) Blessed are those who mourn, they shall be comforted. (Mt 5:4) Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and Let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen We, the Tuchalski Family, are saddened by your mother’s death. We all have shared great memories of your family and ours at various church functions. I think both families were proud that we the children spent our Lent participating in the Passion Play! I and Mary Gogul will pray together for your family on our next visit. May God Bless You and Keep Us All in His Care, Yvonne Tuchalski (daughter of the late Stanley & Mary Jane Tuchalski)
Mike, I do not know if you remember me. We were classmates at St. Paul’s and Madonna. Your mother and my grandmother were good friends. I remember your mother being a very kind person. Please except my sympathy on the passing of your mother. Steve
Thank God you are at peace with Almighty God at last! This is where you’ve prayed to go all your life and now you’re there. What a wonderful mother-Inlaw you were to me & I am proud to say that of you. I am blessed for having shared a great deal of my life with you. You’ll always have a place in my heart. God bless your family, I ask the Lord to be with them now and give them strength and understanding. I am here if they need me. God Bless!
My sister, Yvonne, truly states it all in an earlier entry to the guestbook. Be assured of my prayers and heartfelt sympathy as well. Sincerely, Stan Tuchaslki
Mary and Bob, we were remembering how good and close you were to your mother, you certainly have many good memories of her, with you and your children. We thank the Lord for those memories and the time we have with our loved ones. It is never easy to loose someone, but always remember the good times and memories she has left for you…….. Love you both, your friends Ron & Diane
A heartwarming condolescence in memory of Aunt Margaret with hope and faith you will all pursue great memories of those happier times we all shared, so as to ease your sorrow and strengthen your Light of Life. True memories will be in our hearts forever as Aunt Margaret was blessed to be more caring and giving to the needs of others incl. families, church and providing to the missions, yet most unmaterialistic to herself. May your spirits be filled with comfort and warmth as Aunt Margaret is now in the hands of GOD as she will rest in peace on her journey to the Gates of Heaven. GOD BLESS, Cousin Jim Auten, Wife Sherry and Son Steve
