To the Kern Family



I used to take care of Ethel while I worked at Sunrise, she was the sweetest person I knew I am sadden just as much as you are and I hope that God will look over you in your time of need. Ethel will be missed by me and my children.

Dear Jim, Jeannine and Family,



I am so sorry to hear about your Mother, Ethel. It has been a long difficult struggle for you, especially because of your deep love for her. She was a lovely lady. Cherish the memories. Love and prayers.

Dear Jim and Jeannine, I don"t know if you remember me or not but I was a nurse at the Inn and knew your mom. I just wanted to send my love and prayers to you both. I know your struggle has been long but I can assure you the peace she has now will be duplicated in the peace you will feel. One of my first meetings with your mom was her invitation to me to come to her room for cookies. I am sure this was her way of life. Her loss will leave a great void for awhile but it will soon be replaced with many wonderful memories. My prayers are with all your family. I know you loved your mom greatly.
