Love Dessie and Clint very much. They both were a wonderful influence on our lives.
Ron and Rick,
It was such a pleasure to see your mother’s beautiful face and feel her beautiful soul at Medicalodges. It was such an honor to be a part of her care during that last chapter of her life. She will be missed greatly by all and we will think of her often.
