The family name and honor is also proudly carried on by six grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.Also surviving is niece and caregiver, and many relatives and friends in the U.S. and Europe.

Maria lived her entire adult life in East Chicago where she was a faithful member of St. John Cantius Church and several Polish organizations. She was retired from Inland Steel. You were the best mom, grandmother and great grandmother. You were a kind and generous person, a great cook and baker. Everyone will miss your pierogi's, stuffed cabbage and potato salad but most of all we will really miss you! We love you, Mom, Grandma and Babcia
