Dear Janice, Veronica, Barbara and Family,
Your mother was a good friend for many years. Having had worked with her nights at the VSP gives me many good memories that will last a long time. I enjoyed our chats especially during football season. She was always a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. I am missing her already but know she is here in spirit. I am happy I had the opportunity to be her friend.

To the family,
I believe we take paths in life for a reason and my path lead me to be employed at Courthouse Senior Apartments so that I can love all these people that their paths lead them to me. She was a most pleasant and funny lady to talk to and I enjoyed her visits to my office.
We had a pizza party on Wednesday before she left us and I specifically had the party late in the afternoon so that working seniors could enjoy our activities. She was here, enjoyed pizza and helped clean up after. im gald she came my way. She will be missed. Take Care
