Mom,
How blessed I am to have you as my Mom! I am not sad, as I know that you are with loved ones. A part of you will always live in my heart. I love you Muzzi, more than you could possibly imagine.
Your first born baby boy,
John

Mrs. Cmelak was like a 2nd mother to me growing up. She was the person I ran away from home to. She offered straight forward advise and always called me out when I was full of it. She did this with a smile on her face and love in her heart. There are so many special memories of her with her boys and the great times we had together. Thank you Donna for the life that you lived and the gifts that you gave me. I will always love you!
