Amanda Baratka, 38, of Naperville passed away two days before Christmas leaving behind two young children. Caelob, 15, and Taetym, 12, are now left without the love and guidance that only a mother can provide.

If not for the love and support of family, friends, and community, these children would have no one to turn to in this most difficult time. Please consider donating to the Baratka family to help ease the pain for immediate expenses and continuing support for a wonderful family in a time of need. Thank you.
