Dear Paquelet family,
Your mom will never be forgotten. She always welcomed me as her 7th child. She was a wonderful baker (those chocolate ship cookies),
a talented seamstress and a great driver for our trips to Meyer’s Lake Park and the Hall of Fame parade every year. I loved riding in the back of the station wagon. She was a big part of my wonderful childhood, as were each of you. Thank you for sharing her with me. Love and prayers,
To Mary Kay, Francine and families,
Joe and I are saddened by your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Fondly, Joe and JoAnne Klemens
I’m so sorry for your loss. Your mom was so kind to all of us neighborhood kids. She made the best cookies. I always enjoyed watching her work on her loom. She was always so soft spoken. What a gentle soul.
