We will miss her dearly. We love you Mom. The family would like to thank you Rolando for the love and care you gave our Mom. She considered you one of her grandkids. Thank you again for being there for her and us. Thanks to the Intrepid Girls, Cheri Warrner, Melissa, Greta, Michelle and the rest of the personnel. Last but not least we want to thank our "Special Angels" who took wonderful care of Mom at San Angelo Community Hospital. Thank you much to the ICU and PCU units. She loved and cared for you all..
