Sincerest condolences to the Flick family. Corine was a great Holly Drive neighbor and wonderful woman. She will be deeply missed.
Corinne was a wonderful woman. She was very kind, gentle, and caring. We thank God for the opportunity of getting to know her. Her daughter Jane is a very kind-hearted human being who treated us like family. We both took care of Corinne at Villa St. Francis and she was one of our favorite residents and we will miss her dearly. Jane, thank you so much for all of your words of encouragement, all of your kind gestures, and all of the thoughtful things you did for the staff and residents at Villa St. Francis. You are one of the most caring and selfless people we have ever had the opportunity of meeting. Your mom was very lucky to have you as a daughter. We know you are going to miss her dearly, and we will all miss her too. May her gentle soul rest in perfect peace. We will never forget you and your family. Thank you very much for everything. May God continue to bless and protect you and your family.
