The family would like to thank the entire staff at The Heritage for their kind and compassionate care of Mom. We cannot begin to thank you all enough. We will forever be grateful to all of you! Also, thank you to the staff from St. Croix Hospice for their expert care and kindness in Mom’s final months.

We would like to thank Mom’s cousins who took the time to send her a birthday card, message, family pictures, or well wishes for her 86th birthday. You all made her birthday extra special.

Mom - thank you for everything you have done for us. We are so proud of how resilient you were after Dad passed. You spent your final years making so many new friends. As a family we enjoyed so many great times, travels, holidays, endless laughs, countless stories and really appreciated your hand-crafted gifts. You will be greatly missed, forever loved, and always in our hearts.

Per Barb’s request, a private memorial service will be scheduled at a future date.
