I can't believe she's gone,,,,she was so full of life, and loved Bingo, always waited to see her on bingo Friday with a satchel full of quarters, she is also my neighbor. I held my breath the day the ambulance pulled in front of her house and I saw her for the last time, I didnt know then it would be. She kept her pain a secret and never complained,, she was truly a wonderful woman who will be missed.. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends,,Bob and Sheila Jankowski

I will miss her forever. She was always "miserably well" when asked how she was doing and her smile and laugh will live in my heart. She was a great gal and always a good friend.
