Dear Patty--So Sorry to hear about your mother. My sister was also helped by St. Thomas Hospice. They are wonderful people and made my sister's passing easier for her and for the family. My prayers are with you and your family. I know there are no words to express how you are feeling. There will be many moments of sadness. Once in awhile there will be a memory that sparks a smile on your face and a warmth in your heart as your loved one reaches out to you. I do believe there is a higher power and I hope you are finding comfort with that thought. Connie Williams

Debra, God looked around his garden And found an empty place. He then looked down upon earth And saw her tired face. He put his arms around her and lifted her to rest.God's garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best. Mike
