Anne Catherine Drisgula, 95, of Skaneateles, New York, died on June 20, 2016. Born July 27, 1920 in Holyoke, Massachusetts, she was the daughter of the late Anna Beer and John Trela. Her father died soon after she was born and her mother later married Joseph Skowera, who helped raise her. She was educated in Springfield area schools. Anne married the love of her life, Stanley Drisgula, on April 27, 1946 in Springfield, Massachusetts. They lived most of their married life in Rome, N.Y. before moving to Skaneateles. Stanley died on April 25, 2006, two days prior to their 60th wedding anniversary. Anne was a longtime member of Transfiguration of Our Lord Church in Rome, New York. She served as Chairwoman of the Rosary Society and on the church’s Viet Nam refugee committee. More recently, she was a faithful communicant at St. Mary’s of the Lake Church in Skaneateles. She loved to cook for her family and enjoyed reading Agatha Christie and other crime novelists. Anne’s pies, pierogi and golumpki were the center pieces of holiday gatherings. Her proficiency with an iPad mini was the talk of the Finger Lakes Center for Living where she spent the last months of her life. Anne enjoyed sending and receiving text messages. Her family is convinced she often sent her messages to the wrong person as a way of improving family communication. In the recent phenomenon of six word memoirs to sum up ourselves to one another, Anne’s would be: Found true love; God, Stanley, family. Six words to describe her spirit would be: loving, comforting, charitable, humble, welcoming and thoughtful. Anne is survived by two daughters, Kathy Lovier, Skaneateles and Mary Rose Hake, Bradenton, GA; one son and daughter-in-law, Paul and Mary Drisgula, Scotia, NY; two brothers, Daniel and Paul (Ted) Skowera; eight grandchildren, Carolyn Boniface (John), Laura Kuhns (Peter), Dr. John Lovier (Virginia), Kristine Terrazzino (Sam), Kate Card Kenyon (Jim), Vincent Card (Jessica), Lian Drisgula, and Benjamin Drisgula (Debby); fourteen great grandchildren: Joshua, Owen and Abby Kuhns; Sam, Victoria and Jasper Terrazzino; Margaret, Michael, Jack and James Lovier; Zach Davis; Zach, Cameron and Ashtyn Card and several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by four sisters; Irene Bonavita, Rosalie Moore, Josephine Trela, and Mary Sullivan; and four brothers; Joseph Trela, Stanley Trela, William Trela and George Skowera. Funeral services will be held at 10 am at St. Mary’s of the Lake Church in Skaneateles. Internment services will be held in Rome, New York at St. Mary’s Cemetery on June 23rd at 3 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations in Anne’s name can be made to The Finger Lakes Center for Living, 20 Park Avenue, Auburn NY 1302

Kathy, Paul and Mary Rose, our condolences on your mom's passing. Your MOM and DAD and kids were the best next door neighbors ever for almost 40 years. We still have pleasant memories of you all. We still have in our photo album a picture of Kathy and Rita Migliori holding our son Jim,than one year old. He will be 54 in September. We all ask, where did the time go? We moved to Bel Air, MD in 1998 to be near our children and grandchildren. Hope all is well with you all, Love and God Bless, Sal (Sam) and Toni Grifasi

Condolences to your family. May you receive comfort from the word of God during this time of loss. Acts 24:15 says there will be a resurrection of the righteous and unrighteous. Can you imagine the joy of Martha and Mary when Jesus raised Lazarus back to life?—Read John 11:21-24, 38-44. Revelation 21:3,4 promises that one day death, mourning, and outcry will be no more. To find out more regarding the hope for the dead visit JW.org and search "death".

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
