She was the best Mom, always there for me. A woman of real faith. In a world of givers and takers, she was the Queen of givers. Love you always. Bruce

Mrs. Porebski was my 8th grade teacher at St. Gerald. To this day, she is one teacher I fondly remember, whether it was her stories about her dog and his stuffed lobster or her teaching and preparing me for high school and beyond. I am truly sorry for your loss.
