I met Mom in 1967… she was Mom to my Ames
classmate, Billy. She was always tolerant of all the shenanigans and friends from our class hanging around. My mother, Marcella Niznik, always liked her.
And for years my mom would tell the story of Billy delivering Suburban Life newspapers in a blizzard! She would describe Bill’s frozen eyelashes when she invited him in for a hot chocolate on that day!
guess, my mom respected your Mom (and Dad, Gerald) for their work effort instilled in their kids throughout the years. I am sorry I will be unable to attend her wake or services, as I will be out of town. I am sending heartfelt
condolences and love to all Steinhaus families💕 Margaret Johnson and family
Great Lady—Great Family. Condolences to all
Aunt Carroll will be sorely missed by the whole Collins clan. She was such a beautiful person and always welcomed us to her home. I’m sure she feels the loving embrace of her family members up in heaven as well as the loving farewells from here on earth. Wish I could be with you all today to celebrate her life. With you in spirit.
Dear cousin Carroll,
