Dear Greg and Cindy,



I'm one of the "Ten Bieszczat Kids";

and just wanted to tell you sorry I was to hear about your mom's death. I wish we could have been at the wake, but my husband (Ron) and I spent the day at the hospital with his elderly mom.



I wanted to let you know that Aunt Leona was always a very special person to our family. I remember as a kid, going up to your summer home, which your parents so graciously invited us to.....and rolling down the hill in front of the house, swimming in the lake and all those other summer fun things that a family the size of ours didn't get to experience often! Both your Mom and Dad were always friendly,kind and generous to all of us. We're sure that they're all "up there" somewhere, playing cards, talking and laughing, just like they did when they were part of "The Club".



Sincerely,



Margaret Hershey

Aunt Lee was the best godmother I could have had. She was always kind and thoughtful to me,and I'm proud to have had her & Uncle Ray as godparents. Aunt Lee I'll miss you but you will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
