Teddy, Leone & Roxanne, I'm so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. What a wonderful, kind hearted person she was. The Gallaitis girls have very fond memories of hanging out with the Dudash's. Our parents were dear friends and we always looked forward to getting together with your wonderful family. Always lots of laughs and loads of fun. Your mom was such a kind and gentle soul. Our prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
