Darryl & Deborah,



Blessings be upon you and your family during this time of bereavement. It has been a year now since my mother exchanged time for eternity and it is never an easy transition for those who are left behind. Your father was a fine man who raised wonderful children so be encouraged. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

It was an honor to help care for Mr. Smith at University Park. He was the kindest, dearest man. He was always upbeat and laughing. It was HE who made us feel good. What a treasure of a man. My deepest sympathies to his family.
