At church this past weekend I saw the death notice for Millie. I'm so sorry I didn't know earlier to pay my respects to her. Millie was a fine woman and I'm proud to have briefly known her. She will surely be missed at Our Lady of Loretto.

The Mouser Family would like to extend their condolences to you on the loss of your Grandmother/Mother/Sister. Grandma Gentile was a great woman, very warm, loving, outgoing, etc. Now, may she rest in peace.



On the hottest day of the year last Summer, I paid her a visit. She made spaghetti and meatballs for me, along with a salad. That was priceless. It was like a flashback to 20 years ago. She was walking around without her cane, cooking at the stove and chopping at the counter. She even poured me a glass of milk. It took us several minutes to find her cane afterwards. It turns out that she left it in the pantry. That was awesome.

We are in California and Seattle visiting our daughters and don't expect to return to Illinois until early March. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. With our deepest sympathy. Wayne and Anne
