MATWIJECZKO:  In loving memory of Rosie and Nick Matwijeczko, our mom and dad, our baba and gido, who passed away May 7, 1996 and Feb. 22, 1987.

May the winds of love blow gently;

And whisper so you can hear;

That we still love and miss you,

And wish that you both were still here.

You have gone to be angels,

Secure in our Father’s care;

One day we will all be with you,

As a complete family again up there.

- Loved and missed by grandson Jamie (James), Rose Marie, Rick, and Lawrence, Judy and their family.
