She retired after 25 years from Franklin Pharmacy, Michigan City, Indiana and many still recognize her as the clerk from Polish John's.  She enjoyed card playing, going on vacations with her family along with dancing and listening to many kinds of music to include polka music.  For our Mom, Grandma, and GiGi - it will be the little things she did in our lives that will hold the biggest memories.  Although she has passed, her beautiful spirit will remain with us forever.
