temple, TX Friday, August 11, 2017 Backdoor neighbor kids......It seems that it was meant to be for Lillian and my mom Norene to be best friends and neighbors.....What a twosome.....
They were interchangeable.....and if MrsLosak said something to us kids, it was the same as our own momma saying it......She, like my momma, was one of the best.....Tuff minded and soft-hearted.....Clarity of thought and rightousness.....They knew the formula for organizing and keeping a home, or raising a family......
I am happily smiling that these two ladies are once again able to be reunited where friendship never ended.!!!!
I love the memory of both of them and i pray for the Losak family left behind......Maryann, Bill, and Freddy - much love and forever memories....
May God continue to bless Lillian's descendants for now and forevermore.....Amen.!!!
