Condolence: Grama Millie & Grampa Frank, As I sit at my desk I realize that I'm not sad at your passing but I think of all the happy times that my brothers and I had at your house when we were kids.You and Grampa were Grandparents in your early 40's so you were both young enough to enjoy playing games and sports with us.On one occasion I recall,when you lived in Berwyn, playing hockey with Grampa in the basement.He was the goalie and I would shoot pucks at him to try to score in a make shift net they he made.I also recall playing pinners with him on the front porch stairs when I was 6 or 7 years old.He would take me to the Hobby shop on Roosevelt rd. and buy me and my brothers little toys and magic tricks.Gramps always had a pocketful of change and never said no to our requests to buy something.As for you gram, you always had a full head of red hair when I was little.Your purse was always filled with gum and I was able to get a piece of Wrigleys doublemint any time I asked.I recall going to your house on Wisconsin Avenue on many Sundays with my parents and brothers.We would always have great dinners and desserts prepared by you.You were a pretty good cook but my Grandpa Dan and Grama Louise were just a little better-sorry gram not your fault.They were older and had alot more time to concentrate on cooking.You,on the other hand,always had a job or was running off to play bingo or cards with your friends.Those were the greatest days of my childhood spending time with you and Gramps.You guys let us get away with murder.So as I sit and reflect how lucky we were to have the 2 of you for so long in our lives and our childrens lives, I don't shed tears of sadness but in my heart I have the greatest memories of a beautiful set of loving people that I was lucky to call Gram and Gramps. :)) Love,Ronnie

Tell Dad and Ron I miss them, and need them more every day. Give Aunt Nettie, Aunt Mary, Uncle Nicky, Ed, Grandma and Grandpa my love too and ask them to pray for me. I will be lost without you but I want you to be at peace now. I love you Judy
