Miss Lavina was one of my residents. I´ll always remember her enjoying fried chicken and sitting at the nurse station with me telling me stories. Will miss her and her hugs

I´ve known Lavina a few years now. Had many laughs and conversations together. I´ll think of her every time I have fried chicken. Blessed be Lavina
