    May you be poor in misfortune,
    Rich in blessings,
    Slow to make enemies,
    Quick to make friends,

    Rosemary’s Blessing:

    May God grant you the strength and faith to

    Count your blessings, not your crosses;

    Count your gains not your losses.

    Count your health not your wealth;

    A Special Note from Cathy Bambanek 

    My mom passed away Friday from congestive heart failure.  

    Visitation is at 7:00PM-8 Tuesday, with a rosary at 8, more visitation until 9.  This is at Ted Dickey West on the George Bush Highway.

    A funeral mass will be said at 10:30  Wednesday at St. Marks on 15th Street.  There will be a luncheon afterwards at the church and all are welcome to attend.  Then the cemetary at 1:30.  

    I would love to have you come to any or all of them.

    If you would like to bring something to the house, we need beer, wine, and appetizers to serve to relatives coming from out of town.  They will only be here Tues and Wed, so we do not need a lot of food.

    My address is 2505 heather hill lane.

    Thanks to all of you for being great friends.  Please pray for my family at this stressful time.
