Dearest Cousins, I offer you my prayers of Peace and comfort. I will always remember Uncle Mike and Aunt Ruth driving to our house in Oak Park with Susan and Richard to visit Buscia. I would always ask Uncle Mike questions about WWII. He would always take the time to listen, talk and at the end of our chat, say a little prayer. I was a young girl, but, those chats still remain in my memory and heart. Mom and I will remotely attended Services on the 30th. Prayers and love to you all, Cousin Carol

Stan and all your brothers and sisters,
I was saddened to read of your Dad's passing. While it is a painful loss for all of you, he reunites with your Mom for a heavenly Christmas leaving behind this most difficult and sad year of 2020. May God open the gates of Paradise to your Dad, and bless you all with comfort and peace today, and in the days and weeks to come! I will offer Mass for the respose of his soul on Wednesday, December 30 at the VA, and add his name to the deceased veterans who will be remembered at our next VA Ceremony of Remembrance which will take place in May 2021 near Memorial Day.

Dear Family of Michael, I am so sorry to hear of your loss, but thankful for the long life he was blessed to be given. Patty and I were the best of friends at North High School, and I would love to reconnect with her. I see her face in Michael's and know why she was such a special friend. My love and sympathy to you.

We are so saddened to learn of Michael's passing. He was so wonderful in cheering me up and praying for me when I was sick! He would always tell me that he had lit a candle for me in Church. At the spur of the moment I decided to light a candle for him this morning not knowing that he had passed. May he rest in peace!🌟
We send our condolences and love.
