We were told often that Mom and Dad had a true love story and can continue now that they are together again.
Our circle of strength and love is once more shortened, but forever strong.
Our family would like to thank all the medical staff for the care given to mom and to Home Care Hospice Services for guiding the family in keeping her home and comfortable.
