After Anthony's death, later she married Andrew Freeman the love of her life. The home she built with Andrew was beautiful as was her garden. Their years together were filled with home improvement projects and travel. Reading was her passion and Agatha Christie was her favorite author. Mom was a gourmet cook and her meals were always delicious! Mom spent hours-on-end crocheting, cross-stitching, and/or working on 1,000-piece puzzles. Mom enjoyed watching British Murder Mysteries with Inspector Morse and Miss Fisher being two of her favorites. No matter where she lived, mom "always" called Chicago home. A celebration of Fausta's life will be held on her birthday, Saturday, August 20, 2022 at Saint Casimir Lithuanian Cemetery, Chicago, IL. A special "Thank you" to Pastor Steve Hulke for spending time to share scripture and prayer with Mom in her final days. Mid Wisconsin Cremation Society is assisting family at this time.
