Dear Joel,

Sorry to hear about your mom. Just found out today 8/19 of your mothers passing. Your mom was a great gal, loved to cook, and always willing to help a neighbor. Have great memories of your mom and dad. They were wonderful people. Our sincere condolences to and your family. It's been a very long time since we have seen you or your mom. I can remember the days when all of us on the block were young and played with each other. Your mom was a great person. We all loved her special noodle kugle dish. Have fond memories of all of you.
Hope all is well with you and your family.

Sincerely, the Pasterczyk Family (Bill & Ardelle, Karen and Gail).
