My dear sister-in-law, Marie, was a kind, warm and loving person who will be so missed by her family and all who new her. I came to know and love her while she and Erwin were dating. She and my wife, Katherine, were very close, as close as sisters. Marie was always calling and checking on her while Kat was suffering with PSP over these past six or so years. They are now reunited in heaven, both new arrivals. Kat passed on Nov 16 and was buried just a few days ahead of Marie. Through all the sadness and tears we now experience, we should rejoice knowing they are eternally bonded in sisterhood with our Lord and Savior Jesus. We will eventually join in the joy with them.
