  1. Dearest Tanina, John & Family,
    Sending our deepest sympathy for your loss. At such a time of sadness we hope you know that we care very deeply.
    Love,
    Ann, Fred, Nancy, Lori & Jeff

  2. Kranyak Gang,
    Your Mom was like a 2nd Mom to all the Weindel Gang. As children she brought all of us so much loving & caring. I have so many memories of our families gathering together….Your house, our house, the lake.. Aunt Elle always made me feel like the daughter she never had.
    I am joyous that she is once again with Uncle Joe, Joey & my Mom & Dad. I believe she is now back in the kitchen cooking & baking for all of us while sitting at the kitchen table chatting with Aunt Kay, the men drinking beer & shots & all eight of us playing together like one big happy family. She was the essence of a wife & Mom.
    I will be unable to attend her funeral but please know that all my thoughts are with all of you now. May she rest in peace & peace to all of you.
    Love
    Dee Rose

    • Dee Rose (Dee Dee as mom and all us “kids” called you back then)
      I’m brought to quiet tears with your fond and loving rememberance of the two mom’s that were a part of our growing up. After the luncheon, all of the immediate family sat in mom’s living room and read your tribute outloud, as well as the presiding minister also noted your comments during his readings so, you were present with us all….Yes my hope is they’re all somewhere preparing perogies and other refreshments for when we eventually arrive as it was their love to do…… Love Mike.
