Edna, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. I met you at the support group and saw you frequently at HG while visiting my mom. You were so dedicated caring for John and I thought about you often and how never ending your love was for him. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. You are in my prayers.

I worked 3rd shift at Heritage Green and had the pleasure of taking care of Mr. Krebs. He was a lovely man. I am so sorry for your loss but it is Heaven's gain. Page, you hang in there and know that you are earning your jewels in your crown in Heaven by taking care of your parents. I remember you coming by after work to check on your dad and bring whatever he may need. I will keep you, your mom and family in my prayers.

Mrs. Krebs and family,
I am so sorry I cannot attend the service on Saturday. Other than my parents, Mr. Krebs was the greatest influence on me in the first 20 years of my life. I am now 68. Much of what I am today was caused or strongly influenced by him. I am forever grateful to him. The life lessons he taught were the best and rarely does a day pass that something I learned from him doesn't affect me, my decisions, and my actions. Mrs. Krebs, I will be sending you a letter with more...

Edna,
I know that I have not seen John in a very long time. I do remember him fondly. I was always trying to pet his hunting dogs. He would keep a eye on me to make sure that I did not pet the dogs. He would say "those are hunting dogs they work for a living do not pet them".
He would sometimes have a stern face that always turn into a smile. Ruth was very proud of John. Ruth has probably organized a lot of chores in heaven for him to attend to up there.

Mrs. Krebs, (Edna): I am sorry to hear about the loss of your husband. You are a real trooper for all that you have done and gone through over the years in dealing with John's illness and especially over the past few months. It certainly was a pleasure to meet and get to know you over the past few months since my grandfather (Daniel) arrived at Heritage Green. May God provide comfort to you at this time. Joseph Fabrizio
