It was truely an honor to care for your mother. She was a wonderful person with a great sense of humor. We will miss her very much(we already do!!) and we will miss seeing you all come in daily. You were very devoted and we were so lucky to have all of you with us.

I had the pleasure to work with Anna in therapy during her stay at Wingate. I loved her positive attitude and loved to see her smile. I will miss her.
