"Some people come into our life, and quickly go.
Some stay for a while,
and leave footprints on our heart,
and we are never ever the same"
Flavia

Our deepest condolences to Judy, Tammy and Jennifer, to Tommy, Pattie and Susie, as well as the rest of the family, on the loss of such WONDERFUL member of the family. Mrs. Kwasniewski left her "footprints" on our hearts too. It was honor to have her in our life while we lived in apartment on Milwaukee Ave.
