Gary and Greg, My sympathies on your mothers passing; I’m out of town on business or I would deliver them personally. I will always have fond memories of both of your parents. They were always enthusiastic and delivered kind words to us at all of our basketball games (even when we played lousy !!) Again my deepest sympathies, Denis

My deepest sympathy for your loss. Your Mom was always so pleasant and full of energy! She was such a comfort and help to my Mom the last few years of her life. I will always be thankful to her for that. May God bless you and comfort you in this sad time. Gilda (Ruszkowski) Vasko
Gary, Greg and families; Mrs. Pasternak was a wonderful neighbor and special friend to my grandparents. She aways referred to my grandmother as Mrs. Reed though she is only 3yrs. older than Nellie. I remember her being such an outgoing person, always saying hello, and proud of her family. On behalf of my grandma, parents, and brother, I send you all our deepest regrets and sympathy. Mrs. Pasternak will be sadly missed though remembered through wonderful memories. Kindly, Earl Jason Reed
