My dearest sister, I miss you so very, very much. I end up doing all of the work to finish your business at the tavern and your home. Now I really know how hard you have worked. May you rest in peace. Halina

I used to live just down the street from the bar I would sit and talk with Henryka until the bar closed (she even let my cat and dog in the bar) and she always made sure I made it safely home if she had to have someone walk with me or watch me herself and she would even have me call her when I got home so she wouldn't worry. I was recently in Chicago and planned to stop in and say hi, I wish I would have. God bless you Henryka I will never forget your advice and kindness you will be missed by many!
