Ms. Dena, you and Mr. Carol were the kindest people, I will never forget when you both came and sang happy birthday to me after I lost my parents. I so appreciated meeting you both and some of your family in recent years. You all were always so kind and loving. Please accept my prayers for your comfort and peace.

Mrs. Dorena even though it's only been a short 2 wks. knowing you & Mr. Carol it seems longer to me you two are just one of those special kind of people that when you meet them you like them right away. I've never in my life was told by someone before after just meeting them that they like ponytails. When Chad said that one word ponytails I had no idea where he was going with that. :) I knew then we would hit it off right away from then on. What can I say about those big blue eyes of his :) & his joking around with me. I really enjoyed taking care of Mr. Carol & getting to no you also. I will always remember you & Mr. Carol love story in how ya'll met & who married ya'll two just like what you told me about the priest after meeting him that first time how he was so kind to you and how he left a lasting impression on you . Well that's you loving & kind. The aurora you & your family projected is nothing but kindness . You two will always have a special place in my heart. I will never forget you are Mr. Carol you have forever inriched my life.
