Dear Schwab Family:
We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Your parents were such nice people. They both have a special place in our hearts as do all of you. We know how much you will miss your mom and hope that soon you will only think of her with a smile and a laugh. love:

Diane & Robin, Danny & Jay,

Please accept deepest sympathies on the loss of your mother/grandmother. She was a great lady who exuded warmth and kindness. Diane & Robin, I have fond memories of both your parents going all the way back to my days in high school. They showed a sincere interest in all of your friends, and it always was fun to visit with them. Your Dad was a kind and wonderful gentleman -- I still remember him vividly today as I think of your loving Mom. Mr. Sugar was a sports fan, I recall, and your Mom became one as well. Good thing, too, because she was in for a heavy dose when Rick came along, followed by Danny and Jay. In recent years, it was great to see your Mom actively making her way through the south suburbs. She always was smiling. She was a real trouper. She never will be forgotten by anyone who had the pleasure of knowing her.

My wife, Barbara, and my immediate family -- as well as my mother, Steffi -- join me in offering condolences.

Sincerely,

Joel Bierig
Frankfort, IL

I was very saddened to learn of the loss of your dear Mother. I have very pleasant memories of her and always regarded her as a loving and kindly person. May you have no more sorrow. (I lived in Glenwood 20 years ago)

I am sorry for your loss. The faithful man Job onced asked "If an able-bodied man dies, can he live again?" The answer was a resounding YES! May you take comfort in God, who will soon fulfill the words at Job 14:15 - "You will call and I myself shall answer you. For the work of your hands you will have a yearning."
