Mrs. Gajtka and Family, We are truly sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Dear Gajtka Family, Please accept my deepest heartfelt condolences on the loss of Beatrice. All of us who grew up around Aunt Bea loved her very much. I have the most fond memories of staying over and spending time with her as a young person. Who can forget the sled rides and hot cocoa afterwards? And then there was Puff. She loved Puff and took excellent care of him! Aunt Bea had such a wonderful sense of humor. Please remember all the loving, warm times you had together. It will be a pleasure to see Aunt Bea in the resurrection. Healthy, full of love and joy. What a glorious time that will be, and what a beautiful Bible based hope for all those who fall asleep in death. Once again, my deepest feelings of sympathy and sorrow for your loss. Warmest Regards to all of you, Laura Baker
