Had gotten the Christmas card back that I sent last week, when I called the phone had been turned off & knew something was not good. I looked on line in the Sun Times & saw her OBIT... My condolences to each of you & your families. She was a great lady & kept me supplied in pictures thru out the years. Jan Bradley, Niece

Whenever any of us spoke of Mrs. Klimek, we all remember her amazing ability to grow wonderful vegetables in her garden. She was way ahead of her time using organic methods in her planting. She knew how to make the earth produce an abundance of healthy food from a small plot of ground. The earth will miss her.
