I worked with Mildred at Home Instead Senior Care until her retirement. Mildred was one of the kindest, most dedicated, home health aides I have ever known. She was always a bright light for her colleagues and our seniors!

My sincere condolences to the Deramous family. Candy and I met at PBGC. We worked together and went on a few trips together. We remained in contact since retirement - definitely with the exchange of holiday cards. RIP Candy; Blessings to the family.
