Happy Mother's Day To Sandy Vlcek-Gajeski

LA GRANGE, IL — Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies, or a combination of everything, children become a reflection of the woman who raised them.

With Mother's Day 2021 right around the corner, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across the state to share their mother-daughter and mother-son photos. Happy Mother's Day!

Kirstan D’Onofrio submitted the following for mom Sandy Vlcek-Gajeski:

Why she is special: Although we are all grown up now, our mom still continues to take care and support us in any way she can. She works as a first responder as a paramedic in LaGrange Park and as challenging as a job that was for her this last year she still did an incredible job being our mom. Throughout this pandemic she’s made sure to stock all of our households with the essentials: masks, hand sanitizer, cleaning solutions, and toilet paper and plenty of food. She finally became a Grammy in March to a beautiful baby girl and does nothing but spoil and love her. She’s such an amazing role model for us and our real life super mom.

Message: Mom we love you to infinity and beyond and thank you for everything!
