So sorry to hear this. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family!!
To all the Winschels:
Sincere condolences on the death of your Mom. All of us Straub kids remember your parents fondly. Our parents really enjoyed their friendship with them. Ironically, Tuesday was the 24h anniversary of our Dad’s death. So I guess the four of them are dancing up a storm!! Take gentle care……
So sorry Sharon. I will keep her and all your family in my prayers.
I know what you mean as I got to be with my Mom when she passed on to heaven . It still is hard at times.
So sorry for your loss…we always enjoyed visiting with Norbert and Francis they were really a pleasure to see and spend time with.
I’m sure they’re enjoying each other’s company once again
Stay strong
