On behalf of the entire Sweet Family I would like to offer condolences and uplifting prayer to the entire Family.
Your mother was a golden laced gem and she will be missed dearly. She always treated me like one of her own and made the best hamburger around…always so kind and the perfect compliment to your Dad…RIP Dick Topak! I still have a paint by number picture she gave me in the 1970’s. I will keep it on my wall for remembrance and never forget her. Best wishes to David Karen and Cynthia moving forward with your lives. I’m always around if you need anything or just need a shoulder. Tim Sweet
