You are well loved and will be dearly missed. I remember stopping to see Uncle Tom & Aunt Dolores one St. Patricks Day from Old Chicago Central (Edison) and getting the fat plate of Corn Beef and Cabbage. The best of memories.

One of my favorite childhood memories is stopping by Uncle Tom and Aunt Dolores house after one of my first Cub games for some of Aunt Dolores's famous home made pizza. We will all miss her dearly. May God give you His peace during this difficult time.

German potato salad, Thanksgiving & Christmas dinners, all night pinochle games, all wonderful things but nothing quite compares to that toothy smile that said "everything will be okay"! All our love & support to her beautiful family!
