Pat, I just found out about your mother. I loved this sweet lady so much. I was SO BLESSED to spend time with her when she was at the Bayberry Retirement Inn. We shared so many early mornings together when I was staying at night and she would come up very early for she and I to have and early breakfast before the rest of the residents came in. So many people loved her and I certainly was one. She was a calm, loving, gentle lady with such a big heart! We enjoyed our big hugs and smiles every morning. She was ALWAYS smiling. This entire community, her friends and her church will surely miss this beautiful lady. May our Lord be your source of comfort and peace during the days ahead. If I can do anything for you, please do not hesitate to contact me. I love Elmira! I will miss her so much! God Bless you and all of her family...... John 14:27
