Laid to rest here in Gate of Heaven Cemetery, Section 11 Lot 342, are Mary and Frances Weirick. Although they were not related to our family they were always present when I was a child. They went on vacations with us, visited at our home, and we loved them like our own. Both Mary and Frances were single, never married, and spent their lives in the department store industry; Shillitos, Pogues, and Woolworths to name three I know of. I believe it was at Shillitos where Mary met my grandmother Ruth Driskell and they became lifelong friends.

The Weirick sister's parents were Sylvester Adam Weirick (1881-1930 Plot HC-C-90-10) and Anna Margaret Hall Weirick (1876-1963 Plot HC-C-90-11). They are buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery in Columbus, Ohio.
