Mom worked many years at Akron National Bank and later retired from the US Postal Service. She was beautiful, dignified, gracious, giving, and resolute. She was dedicated to her children and loved us unconditionally. A wonderful homemaker and cook, Mom hosted all of the holiday gatherings. She was an avid gardener and skilled quilter who shared the fruits of her labor with others. Proud of her heritage, Mom traveled to France to visit her family there.
Our heartfelt thanks to family and friends for prayers and support, and to Summa Hospice for their compassionate care of Mom.
The family will receive friends Sunday, March 15, 4-6 pm, at the Anthony Funeral Home, 1990 S. Main St. in Akron. The funeral will take place Monday, 11 am at the funeral home, followed by Christian Burial at Holy Cross Cemetery. Pastor Lucas McSurley officiating. (Kucko-Anthony-Kertesz Chapel, AKRON)
