Mrs. Darlene was the absolute sweetest woman to care for. Always so pleasant and made staff feel good to come to work. She will be missed dearly. My deepest heartfelt condolences to the family.

Like to share the memories of going out to the sawmill, and to the farm for family get together`s growing up as kids.
Like for Easter and hiding eggs in the farm equipment and other cool places for a weenie roast and the timber.
