Mrs. Bochenek and Family,



My deepest sympathies on the loss of Edward. I always enjoyed talking to him before 4:00 mass began. We used to compare gasoline prices and most of the time he paid less that I did! He was a wonderful man and he will be deeply missed. Take comfort in the many memories you have of him.
