So sorry for your loss. I was fortunate enough to have visited with her several times over the years and she was always wonderfully kind and funny. Love, prayers, and hugs to all , of the extended family. She was the matriarch of a truly wonderful, talented, and loving family that continues to honor her memory ever day by living her long legacy of love, joy, and family.

Dear Pelowski Children,

God bless you as you say goodbye to your mama. Even though she may have been ready to go, it is still hard. She is your mom, and it is heart-breaking to see her go. Prayers and hugs to you.

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your dear loved one. Please accept my condolences at this painful time. Losing a loved one is distressing and as comfort is needed from family and friends, it is my hope your family will find comforting the promise at Isaiah 25:8 where we are assured that "death will be swallowed up forever." It is my hope your family will find strength to endure during the days ahead.

Ruth, my dear friend and second mother, we will miss you, but I know you are having a cup of coffee with my mom right now and enjoying peace. I have never met a more lovely, giving, talented and genuinely nice person ever. Ruth was an amazing lady. She loved people, and everyone was welcome at her house. We were blessed to have known her and loved her. Rest in peace, dear Ruth. Nance
