Med Exps & Funeral for Mozie Pranio

As most of you know we lost a wife, a daughter, a sister, a cousin, and a good friend in Maureen (Makowski) Pranio (50) on December 15, 2017 as she succombed to her 40+ years' battle with (Type 1) Juvenille Diabetes, and related Heart and Blood Pressure problems.  She has always struggled with this debilitating disease and seldom complained. In 1998 she underwent a kidney transplant which she had for 16 years (way over the estimated life of a donated organ) to speak to how well she took care of herself.  Although this past week we all had hope and were selfishly wanting her to stay with us  - she left us -  to become disease free up above.
Her husband Max has always been her rock and true testament of someone who displayed "for better or for worse", and while he is trying to hold it all together  - Maureen's family is asking for donations to offest the Medical bills that will come and Funeral expenses he will be faced with. While still overwhelmed with emotion that she is gone anythign we can do to eliminate the added stress of the financial impact - we are trying to offset for Max.  The next few weeks, months, years will  be enough to bear without the daily/monthly reminder of expenses related.
We know there are a lot of folks that cared for Maureen as much as we did. We thank you in advance for anything you can spare to aid in loosing her so soon.

Blessings & Love - The Family of Maureen (Makowski)  & Massimo Pranio.
