Przesyłam wyrazy współczucia z powodu tak ogromnej straty. Ciocia Maryjka chociaż mieszkała na innym kontynencie była w bliskim kontakcie z naszą rodziną, zawsze obecna pomimo dzielących nas kilka tysięcy kilometrów. Była niesamowicie ciepłą oraz szlachetną osobą. Będzie jej nam bardzo brakowało.

I worked with Mary for over 20 years she was hardworking and a good friend. We spent many lunch hours sharing stories of our families. She would always speak very fondly of “my Bob, my Natalie and my Roman” . The last time we spoke we had made plans to meet up for coffee in the New Year but God had other plans. Rest in peace my dear friend Mary and may God give strength to Bob, Roman and Natalie at this time.

Mary was a strong and confident woman. I worked with her for almost 20 years. She was very proud of her family and all of their accomplishments. She would tell me "my Bob, he can fix anything" and "my Roman and my Natalie are very competitive - if one of them gets an A the other has to get an A+". I will remember the many years of stories that we shared. My condolences to all of you at this very difficult time and I hope that Mary's love and strength will help you get through this together.

I will always remember Mrs. Trusz as a kind a generous lady. She was a loving mother and I'm sure she will continue to look down on her children and grandchildren lovingly from heaven. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mrs. Trusz's family during this difficult time.
