Jeanne:
I will not forget Anna, especially on May 07. Thank you for allowing me to be of service, even though my time with her was short. You did a wonderful job caring for your Mom! I know from experience that it is difficult to watch a loved one suffer. Thankfully, it wasn't for very long. Hold tight to your precious memories! My prayers are with you and your family!
