To all the Krajewski Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have been praying all week that Lisa, the girls, Aunt Joyce, Uncle Dan (that's what we still call him) and all of Mike's family will be comforted. Even though I had not seen Mike since he moved from California, some ~40 years ago, I am greatly saddened by his loss.... With all my love, Dina Rainer (Leona's daughter)
