Additional Comments:
Norma’s Notes:  The name Goniwicha was spelled Goniewicha throughout her 
obituary.  All the legal documents I could find show the spelling as Goniwicha, 
therefore, that is the spelling that I used.  I added her daughters first names 
to the obituary and corrected the spelling for Doris and Ilene’s last names
