Meeting Theresa Parkanzky

Guess who we were able to meet? Theresa Parkanzky! Theresa lives a few hours away from us. She and my mother Shirley Longwell are the only two living cousins in the United States. Eight of the 23 cousins were born in the U.S. Theresa's mother was Mary (Raczkiewicz) Kufta. Shirley's father was Antoni Raczkiewicz. We are grateful that we got to meet her along with one of her children and two of her grandchildren: Marie, Declan and Phalon.
