Dear Sara:

I worked with your Mom at DPU HR back in the 90s. (I was the Recruitment Manager and had the office next to hers). She was always so nice and funny too. I specifically remember the awesome pictures from your trip to Europe back then. She just came on my mind and I googled her name and wanted to share a little about those days when you were young. Very sincerely,

Sara, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother, which I just learned about. I worked with her as a home health physical therapist earlier this year and always enjoyed her. I was there when her viburnum, which she loved, came out in the spring. Deborah Brown, Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital Home Health
