My mom, Theresa Borowski, joined her beloved Loretta on 7/23/10, my sons birthday. She was talking and seeing Loretta before she passed so we know they are together. They are at peace.

To my dear beloved Loretta,
I will miss our weekly phone calls that we shared and had some good laughs and cried. I thought of you like a sister since we grew up together.Too bad we lived so far and were too ill to travel to see each other. I will miss you and keep you in my prayers until we meet again.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of your mom, my aunt, who was always in my thoughts and prayers.I will treasure the memories of our time spent together at her home and the Lagrange coffee shop. I am grateful for our last conversation when we shared how much we loved each other and how much she loved my mom. Those words will never be forgotten. I know the memories you have will bring you comfort. I am thinking of all of you at this difficult time.

Patti, Bobbie, Lori Ann & Chet, I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom and dad were treasured neighbors and friends for many years. We had so much fun with our porch parties. They were so giving to Joe and Bryan as they were growing up. She will be truly missed and always in my heart. I will feel a little jealous cause I already have the vision of mom, dad, and Jack and any of the other neighbors no longer with us having porch parties again up in heaven. If there is anything I can do please let me know. Love you kids

Bobbie,

We're so sorry about your mom. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Jim and the rest of the family during this difficult time. Loretta was a real fighter and the grit and determination she showed these past months during her battle with cancer have been inspiring. It has also shown us where you get your spirit. She lives on within you.

All our love
