To The Caldwell family; It was such a pleasure and honor to know both Alice and Clarence Caldwell. I met them as Alice's Hospice nurse. I communicated with Mr. Clarence via e-mail concerning Ms. Alice because he was very hard of hearing. I grew to love them both. Ms Alice loved to sing "How much is that doggie in the window" I miss them both. May God's love and peace guide you during this difficult time.
Blessings
