My fondest memory of Mr. Fusiek was the chocolate chip cookies at Re’s house. He was loved by all and will be missed by many.
Cioci Betty, Kathy and Re, I wish that I could have been there with you throughout all of this. I hope that you know that I was there in my heart and soul. I have so many memories of Uncle Ed, but I guess the fondest ones are of his terrific hugs and all the love that we shared. I miss him terribly. I love you all, Fran
I’m sorry that Fran and I couldn’t be there for the services. I will always remember the great visits we had with you both over the years. Ed was always a perfect host and a pleasure to spend time with. I only wish there had been many more times to remember.
