Wherefore, may God raise you from death by the power of the resurrection, and also from everlasting death by the power of the atonement, that ye may be received into the eternal kingdom of God, that ye may praise him through grace divine.

2 Nephi 10:25

Depressing how the first post to my family forum is the death of my grandma Skowronek. I have no words to describe what is going through my head right now, but I wanted to at least acknowledge her passing and my recoginition of the wonderful and loving great/grandma that she was to me and my family.

Here are the references to her obiturary I’ve found so far:

Tribute to Siggy

Update

Apparently, all these links are dead now, I’ll be putting up a PDF version of the obituary as soon as I have a minute. Until then, I’ve also posted the photobituary (or as I am not calling them) on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.

A bait car is a vehicle owned by the police and is intended to be stolen. After a bait car is stolen, the location, speed, and direction of travel of the vehicle is monitored by police dispatchers at EComm through GPS tracking. Everything that takes place inside the bait car is caught on audio and video. The dispatcher will coordinate a police response and once officers are in position behind the bait car, the engine will be disabled at the click of a mouse button which allows for the quick arrest of the car thieves.
