Dear Ron and both Kurek (Gale) families,



I knew Anita from Schurz High School. Barb Szyszka kept me up to date on Anita's condition and her battle with cancer. The last time I saw Anita was at her mother's wake. I was glad I was able to pay my respects at that time and spend some time with Anita.Unfortunately, I will not be able to do the same in person for Anita. That is the purpose of this e-mail.



Please accept my deepest sympathies in your time of sorrow. Celebrate her life. Anita will live on for all of us in our hearts & memories.



Most sincerely,

Bobbie
