Loretta Ann Mroz, RN  (June 1, 1932 - March 3, 2020)

Beloved wife of the late Bill "Boleslaw" Mroz. Cherished mother of Dennis (Elisa) Mroz, proud grandma of Lisette Fabian and Alexander (Caitlin) Mroz. Loving aunt of Betty (Joe) Ogrodnik, Gloria Kisiel, Edward, Robert and Susan Baran.

Babies were central to Loretta's life. A proud graduate of St. Mary of Nazareth School of Nursing, she worked nights in the Nursery at St. Mary of Nazareth Hospital for thirteen years. Afterwards, she joined Holy Cross Hospital as Head Nurse of the Nursery where she remained for over twenty years.  Upon "retiring" at Carillon Adult Community in Plainfield, she continued working part-time with babies at a daycare center until the age of 77.  Loretta would often joke that if she had a penny for every diaper she had changed in her life, she would be rich. Caring for those babies was her treasure and her greatest joy besides her family. Parkinson's and Lewy-Body dementia took her from us. Our comfort is that she is in the arms of her Bill and of our Blessed Mother whom she adored all of her life.  Funeral Friday,  March 13, 2020 at 9:30 am from the WOLNIAK FUNERAL HOME, 5700 S.
