Thinking of you in your loss, I met your Mom at Fieldcrest forever ago it seems like and lost track of her when I left. We did meet again at Alma Strader's when I was a care giver. We caught up on the years we had missed, she always had a great outlook on life. May God comfort you and your family in your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss of your mother. I will miss going into her room and talking with her and the times she would come to my door and just sit there for a while. She always smiled even when she said no to whatever I asked her to do. may your memories of your mother during healthier times be of comfort to you.
