I was so sorry to hear of Daphne's passing. I worked with her at Tucker Center and she was always upbeat and had a smile on her face, especially when she was singing or playing her instrument. She brought such joy to the residents there and to those who worked beside her. I will keep her family in my thoughts and prayers.
