It is very difficult to loose a loved one no matter how well you try to prepare for that day. I know because I just lost my mother two weeks ago. She was 91. Let us be happy for Mary and continue to share all the love she had given all of us while she was here on earth. She is reunited with Paul in heaven. Our prayers go out to the Chovanec Family in their time of need.

To the family of Mary Ann Chovanec. The loss of a loved one is always a difficult time for all of us, but we find comfort in the fact that she and Paul are once again reunited and her suffering on this earth is ended. She is enjoying the splendor of heaven and smiling down at us. Please accept our sincere condolences to all the family.
