Re: RIP Mary Gosek
There is a gaping hole in Oswego this week that cannot be filled. Mary was a very special person- one of those rare people that you only run into a few of in your life. Just to give you an inkling:
- The line at the funeral home snaked through the building, out the door, and down the street for a block- in the rain. 3-4 hour wait. Hours were supposed to be 3-8, but there were so many people in line that they went on until after midnight. The family was incredible.
- The church was standing room only for her funeral.
- Oswego lit City Hall in teal in her memory last night.
- Our US Representative John Katko paid tribute to her memory from the well of the US House.
A huge loss for her family, the community, the Lakers- all of us. What a woman.
