I was so sorry to read about Ms. Blanche's passing. My family and I met her when we moved my mother to The Cottages. She was so sweet and chatty and made us laugh. I always talked to Ms. Blanche went I went to visit my mother and looked forward to seeing her. I was sorry when she moved that I wouldn't see her anymore. She always loved to hug my granddaughter and I hope our hugs made her happy too. My condolences to your family.
