Tributes
"Stan and family: So sorry to learn about Sue's passing. I will always remember your family from St. Wencel's. Your boys and my brother and I made faces at one another trying to make each other laugh. My best to you at this tough time."
"My sincere sympathy to you Stan and all the family. Sue and I were dear friends at Holy Cross and then lost touch after you moved back to Antigo. I do know how much she treasured her family and I know too, what a treasure she was. "
"Stan and Family..We want to send our sympathy, but find it hard to say the kind of things that possibly might comfort you today. And yet perhaps just knowing that our thoughts are with you now will bring you consolation and lift your hearts somehow. Our sympathies are with you at this time of sorrow. Mary and I were just recently recalling the fun times we had with Stan and Sue and the boys at our tavern in Polar. May Sue rest peacefully in the arms of our Lord! Ralph & Mary Schwartz Formerly of Polar"

"Stan and family- We are sorry to hear of Sue's passing but we do know that she's now in the loving arms of our God, without illness, without worries but....without us for awhile.
