Words can not express the sadness I feel for your loss and ours, at Oaks at Pooler. I am going to miss her and I know you all will even more. I do know she loved her family very much and spoke of you often. I hope the precious memories you have of her help you through this time. Please know everyone at Oaks at Pooler thought of her as family and she was so loved. God bless you all and I pray for peace and comfort for you as you go through the next few weeks and months.
