Condolences
"I believe that your grandmother was a remarkable gift to your family. I was so very sorry to hear of her passing. Her life was a testimony of how grace and wisdom come from a life lived to the fullest. In time, your grief will lessen, and you will find joy again through your memories. I know that is not much help to you now, but please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and I am here for you."

"From high school carpools, track meets to random bits of advice, Mimi was such a trusted light in my life. She was so helpful, kind and understanding. She embraced others and she was just hilarious. Her wonderful humor, friendly nature and amazing personality will be missed. I’m keeping her family lifted in prayer and good energy as they mourn. Simply put, Mimi was the type of woman you never forget and I’m very lucky to have met her. She and the Kukla family helped my family and I so much over the years. May her soul rest in peace and divine love! Kindest Regards, Diamyn Rembert "

"My sincere condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Patty at STM. Made me feel welcome when I started to work there and she make the best desserts to share with co-workers. She loved talking about her grand kids and everything they were doing. Patty you hold a special place in my heart. I always remember your birthday St. Patrick’s Day. I remember you telling me that you were named Patricia because you were born on St. Patrick’s Day. Patty you will be missed and now you are in heaven with your Ricky. May you Rest In Peace Ms. Patty Marisa, Oscar, Sophia and Daniella Munoz "
