Cindy, it's been a long, hard haul for you all, I know. Well done!!! You cared for her like she cared for you when you couldn't take care of yourself. May God give you healing, rest and true humility going forward. Tom

Cindy, Scott and Jeff: I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I had an enormous amount of fun taking care of her and I will sorely miss my night shift "assistant." I will never forget her friendship. I am going to miss seeing all of you at the Village and I hope you stop by and stay in touch. Love you l4HXF

Cindy, Jeff and Scott. We are heartbroken to hear about your mother. Bernie was such an amazing person. She was always involved in so many activities that helped others. We have missed seeing her sitting on her porch the last few years. Sending you love and strength during this difficult time.

Scott,
We are very sorry for your loss. I know that it has been a number of years since we have been in contact, but this is never anything that anyone prepares for regardless. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
