Mary gave me a wonderful gift by allowing me to care for her while she was ill and during her last days. I truly enjoyed being her nurse as she always made me smile and brightened my day. Her memory will remain with me forever. Mary was a wonderful person and is evidenced by her loving family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
