To Nick, Helene, and the rest of the family: So very sorry to
hear of Catherine's passing. Just heard about it late this evening or I would have attended service this morning. Also sorry I've fallen out of touch since my husband's passing in '13, but enjoy the happy memories of the times we spent at "the boat" before
Joe became ill.

A last thought from a well done card: Don't cry for the loss....
thank God for the good times that happened at all.

(daughter of the late Margaret Mutzschinsky Shimon...cousin
to Catherine, Nick, and Joe)
