I just found out that my good friend Astrid has passed away. I worked with her as a nurse in Columbus. She was in my wedding in 2012. She was a very kind person and friend to me. She was always willing to help others in what ever way she could. I will always remember Astrid and her daughter and her grandchildren. They were in my wedding. Love you Astrid, you were an angel. One of the nicest people I´ve ever known. Rest in peace, sweet lady. I will always remember you.

I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Redmond's passing from this terrible disease. I was friends with Mark for many, many years until our paths went in different directions. However, 35 years later, I have never forgotten the family. Mrs Redmond was a beautiful, giving, caring individual. I never heard her say a bad thing about anybody and she gave everyone a chance. The world has truly lost a special individual. Prayers out for Mark, Misty and the rest of the family
