I’ll miss you very much. I’m sorry that I will not be able to attend the services and my thoughts and prayers are with our familly.
We enjoyed knowing Mary. Our sympathies to all the family. She will be missed.
Fond memories of my Aunt Mary include the wonderful nut rolls, kielbasa and stuffed cabbage she always had for us to eat when we would visit. I would get so excited when I knew we were taking a trip to Weirton to see my relatives. It always made me sad that we didn’t visit all the Bubriks of Weirton more often. I do believe there will be a big family reunion in heaven this Christmas! Be at peace, Aunt Mary.
Bubba, Thank you for all that you have done for me throughout the years. You truly are a wonderful person and I will never forget the great memories I shared with you and Cedo. I am very blessed and thankful to have had you in my life. I will always remember and reflect on the great times we shared. Rest in peace. Christopher
Patty and family: I haven’t seen you forever…but wanted to extend my sympathy. My sister Fran passed away this past July; it’s so hard loosing a loved one, especially our parents. I truly feel your pain. May God help you and your family thru this hard time. Take care.
Mommy, You gave me life and watched over me . You told me not to cry but it’s hard not to. I am so greatful for the love and bond we share. It’s been 10 years you’ve been without daddy. I can’t imagine how hard it’s been for you. You put up a good fight for 10 years without your “nanny”. I can’t imagine daddy’s reaction when he was able to see his “bride” once again. O the splendor in his face. I will miss caring for you and calling you every morning, to make sure you were up and ok. You are no longer cold mom, no longer in pain mom because you are in the arms of OUR LORD JESUS AND YOUR “NAN”. I love you mommy and daddy. I thank you for all you have given me and my family. Watch over us and guides through the rest of our lives. love u Sharon
Dear Patty, Sharon and family, In reading the previous condolences written here about your mom, it brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful person she truly was and in such exceptional ways influenced so many people. I was just thinking about my grandfather (her brother) last night and missing him around the holidays, especially. She was certainly a fighter and a very strong woman. I have a smile on my face right now thinking of the fiesty in her. I know how much she missed Uncle Andy and that’s the first thing that I said to my mom when she told me of her passing. I’m sure it hurts to know she is not physically here with you anymore, but I know she is so delighted to be back with him. I hope that you find peace in that… and all of your priceless memories that you shared with her this holiday season and forever.
Patty,Sharon & Family, We would like to express our deepest sympathy at the loss of “Chochee”. We realize that no words can soften your sorrow, but it is our sincere hope that the kind wishes of your many friends and relatives will make your grief just a litter easier to bear. “Chochee” was an amazing women and her life was full of loving deeds toward others and will be missed by so many of us. She will now be joined in heaven with Uncle Andy and my Mom (her sister, Helen). Hold tight to those memories for comfort, lean on your friends and family for strength and always remember how much all of you are cared about. May God be with all of you and may peace comfort you now and in the days ahead. Our words are few but our love is deep. With Loving Sympathy,
Patty So sorry for your loss. Prayers are with you and your family during this hard time. Jessica Haspel

Bubba & Cedo, You have always made me feel like one of your own children. The bond I share with the both of you made me the woman, wife and mother that I am today. I will never go a day without thinking about you and missing my dear grandparents. I am so happy that the two of you have found each other again and will be able to watch over the family that you created together. I am sad now without you but it comforts me to know that you will always be with me and that we will be together again. I love the both of you more than I could ever express in words – and I know how much you have always loved me. I promise to teach my children, your great-granddaughters, everything that you have given me in my life. May God bless you on your new journey together. Love – Your Christina
