I offer sincere condolences for the loss of your Mom, a very special lady. Alice will always be one of my all time favorite patients. She had a wonderful sense of humor and was appreciative of all the care she received. I will always remember her lovely smile, infectios laugh and poker blanket! May you be comforted by fond memories. I know she felt blessed by having such a supportive family. Linda Grant, RN Unit 33 Caritas Norwood

Please accept my deepest sympathies. I was once told that no one is truly dead when others hold them in their hearts and memories.
