Mareta (Rita) A. Drongoski, 93, passed away May 18, 2022
Our mom was a faithful Catholic, bearing witness to God her whole life and was a member of St. Paul's Parish. She was devoted to her family and she loved serving others during her many years as a waitress. Mom and dad were married 67 years until his untimely death May 3, 2021. She loved family vacations, old movies, "dad's music," shopping, the color red, her pyrex coffee pot and she centered everything around going out to eat!
