She was the most beautiful tender loving woman who loved all children, especially her own. I remember her calling her oldest son, Schpatzi with the greatest dimples. Her beautiful daughter, Rosemary was her princess & sweet Teddy was so loveable to all & I can hear his infectious laugh. I will never forget her! Eternal Memory!!!
