Garlene Gnitzcavich

Message from Kathy Schubert

Dear John and family
I was so sorry to hear about Garlene. I have known Garlene for many years, in our younger years. We had so many fun times with Garlene and Carol and their parents. I have wonderful memories including the morning she did my hair for my wedding and my daughter's 2o years later, for her prom. I'll always remember her wonderful laugh and very giving and kind nature.
May God comfort all of you. Praying for all of you. God bless you during this difficult time.
Kathy Schubert

Uncle John,

I'm sorry to hear about Auntie Gar. She was an amazing lady and I was proud to have her as my God Mother and that laugh of hers......so contagious! :)

I never told anyone this:
On my wedding day, while I was pinning a corsage on her dress, she told me the only thing she ever wanted was for me to have the happiest life possible and she will always be there for me no mater where I am. Well, I believe I am fulfilling her wish.....and I know she will still be there for me.

Love, Tammy

So sorry to hear of Garlene's passing. She certainly was a true one of a kind person. I was lucky enough to work with her for a number of years. She would definitely light up a room when she entered, I will always remember her laugh! My condolences to John, Michael and Matt, you were her life, hope your memories will soften your loss.

I want to Thank Mom for bringing two Loving and Special Sons into the world, one of which I was lucky enough to marry. She will live on through the way she raised her sons and the way their lives are led. She was devoted to all of her family. Her positivity on Life was as vibrant as her red hair. Love you Mom. Rest in Peace, I will always see parts of you in Matt❤
