To The Grande Family,
It was an honor to have Pat as my patient and to also call her my friend. I was her homecare nurse and I looked forward to seeing her every week... and sometimes more. She was truely a strong women. My grandmother passed several years ago with the same illness and she was a spitting image of her. I know they are comparing notes, gossiping and not taking "junk" from anyone. I will truey miss her. I know she is no longer in pain, and I feel comfort knowing she is our guardian angel. With deepest condolences, Jen

To the family of Patricia,
I had the honor of caring for Mrs. Grande. She was such a fighter and so darn spunky! She was always so funny and often more concerned about me...A lot of times I had to say, "enough about me, how are you?" I imagine she didn't like the fuss over herself. I am so sorry for her suffering and hope you can find some comfort in knowing she is at peace now. I see many patients, and Patricia is one I will never forget.
You are all in my prayers. I read this before church this morning and lit a candle before Mass started in Patricia's honor.
Fondly,
Erin Heerdt, RN
