I’m sadden by her passing. However, I know she’s in a much better place. I took care of her for the last 2 years and she became one of my favorites. She would sit by my med cart and talk to me. She’d always want me to take care of her. Rest In Peace my sweet angel. Til we see each other again. Love to the family and friends.
