Dear friends, I am so sorry to read of your mother, grandmother and mother-in-law's passing. I was fortunate to see her with you one last time. You were all so lucky to have her for such a long time. Wrap yourselves in each other during this most difficult time of grieving. I empathize with you all to the nth degree. - Posted by: Lana Storey (fried and former neighbour) on: May 26, 2020

Terry and Linda, we were so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. We know how vital a woman she was simply by the stories you shared with us of her. We almost felt we knew her. No doubt there will be a void left by her passing. May the good times and memories carry you through this time of mourning. - Posted by: Carol and Rick Crawford (Friends of Terry & Linda) on: May 24, 2020

Kay and other ladies baked and made food for my wedding shower in 1968. The Wachniak's are a lovely family and I knew them since I was a teenager as John lived next door to us. Kay was a kind and giving person and will be long missed. My condolences to the family. - Posted by: Gerri (Yurchak) Page (friend) on: May 23, 2020
