So proud and honored to have had the opportunity of taking care of Mama Lou. She was always smiling, kind, gentle, soft spoken and has an excellent sense of humor. You meant a lot to me. I will always remember some of our funny moments together. You will be missed but your memories will always linger in my heart. So glad I met you. You did tell me you were tired, so sleep on and take your well deserved rest, my dearest Mama Lou.
