My condolences to the family & friends of Jerome Macuga. I actually came across his obit while searching for another in Romeoville. I didn't have the honor of knowing Mr Macuga, but as a cancer survivor I feel somehow connected to others who have fought that battle. I also LOVE the name of his construction company. It says a lot about the type of person he was. Having a good support system helps you to cope with your loss. "Therefore, keep comforting one another and building one another up, just as you are in fact doing." -1 Thessalonians 5:11
