Many great memories with the Krantz family, in Scandia and in Forest Lake on Healy Ave! I’ll never forget the pride Mama MaryKay had when she earned her Real Estate license, and how I looked up to her for being a professional woman!! Always to the point! Never beates around the bush! Say it like it is! So many fond memories ❤️. I can see a lot of her talents and strength in her kids! Celebrate her life and her love is what we will do!
Growing up, their family was like my second family…heck I even crashed MK’s car taking Tara to a softball camp at The U of M (wasn’t my fault 😁)! This is when she labeled me as “Crash!” Many great memories with softball, fishing and vacations etc. May she rest peacefully!!!
