I took care of Edie during her brief stay at The Manor at Woodside. I used to love sitting with her and listening to her stories about kids,jobs,and life in general. She always had me laughing. Whatever time I had between my people I had, we would sit and talk and watch "the old people go by" she herself of course was not one of them. She is going to be so greatly missed. Thoughts and prayers to the family.
Sincerely,
Debbie Gonzales
