Dear Littell Family, I was privileged to have met your mother while working at Broad Creek Care Center. She was always a positive and upbeat moment in my day. I was so glad to have had the opportunity to know her. Please accept my deepest condolences....I hope that you will find comfort in your many fond memories of life with her.

So sorry to hear about Jean. We met her at the RV Resort - she was a real neat lady! She did a great job as treasurer for the Owner's Association all those years.
