Michael and family, so very sorry to read this and for your loss. Your mom was certainly one of a kind and such a sweet natured and wonderful woman. Years ago, although circumstances weren’t not great in how we met, I so much enjoyed getting to know here and working with her and her contagious smile! May her memory stay with you always! Deepest sympathies

She was a wonderful person, never passed a person without smile and wave. She never ever complained even when she wasn't feeling her best. She was one of my favorite volunteers at NARH. She will be missed by many.
