Condolences to your whole family on the passing of your mother, mother in law, aunt, grandma, etc. It's hard to believe that she won't be there next time I'm in the neighborhood. She has always smiled and given a wave and I know that she and mom spoke frequently. She will be greatly missed by many, but none more than her family. Blessings to you all. I can picture her with Mr. Z and Lawrence is landscaping God's yard, and it is beautiful!

Sandy, Dawn and Carolyn - I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing, but am comforted to hear she was surrounded by family to the end. It's crazy to imagine that I've known Mrs. Z for most of my life. While I have not lived in Milwaukee for many years, it's always been a comfort to see you, her family, taking care of the yard and spending time with her as I come to see my Mom just a house away. Take good care of one another - she's reunited with your Dad and her many brothers and sisters, and will always be with you. Sending love and happy memories. - Mary

Dear Dawn and family. I'm so sorry for your loss. She was such a little spitfire. She always fun to have around. God bless her and all of you
