I had the honor and pleasure of caring for this wonderful lady while she was at Three Rivers. I soon discovered that under that tough exterior she tried to give us was a warm and loving person with a heart of gold. I will miss this special lady very much and remember her fondly.
Sue, Jan, and Jack I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers
