I so seldom check the obituaries, that I often miss the passing of someone important to me. Through the years we saw less and less of Sally and I am truly sorry that I didn't make more of an attempt to stop by her house. Sally was always the nicest person to visit with and in her life, she did so much for us. We are truly sorry to learn of her passing. Please know we share your sorrow.

JC, Mom and I probably drove by your place every other week to go to White Sulpher Springs to get into the water. At 6am I would say let's drop by and see the Kantorowicz. Mom would say don't be silly. I would reply I'm Sure JC is working on something I could help him with. We would do that with the Weintz when I was little and I would go out and bug Bob and Larry while mom would visit with Ann.
We also went by your folks place about every other week to Helena. Sally would tell me"Loretta was so mad at father Kantorowicz for getting out of the Wolf Creek to go to the plaines" I would always reply. I would be also. It's beautiful out here. In the spring and the fall we would see elk down by the creek. Yep..I bet Loretta was very upset about the move. We miss Sally always life all around her and I miss the farm.

I will miss my dear friend, Sally. So many wonderful memories of our teaching days, gathering for special occasions, hearing funny stories of working at the radio station and the history of her house. I will miss the lunches together and the phone chats.
Thinking of your family and sad that I'm not able to attend Sally's service, as I'm back East. You will be in my thoughts and prayers,
Toni Jaraczeski
