I was very sorry to hear of Maria’s death….she was a wonderful person. We worked together at the Hillsboro Hospital….worked hard, but had fun as well. And I still marvel at how fast she could knit! I am grateful to have known her.
I am sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. If you remember, I worked with your mom when I first graduated from nursing school and loved her dearly. Mothers are special and yours certainly was. She touched many lives and will be missed.
