The family would like to thank the nurses of St. Peter’s Hospital 6 Pavilion, the nurses of the Hospice Inn, Dr. Robert M. Kelleher, Dr. Malik, and Dr. Dalfino for their excellent care and compassionate support.

    So sad to lose Aunt Dos. Even though it had been a long time since I last talked to her, I had many years full of wonderful memories of her and all of my favorite cousins.
    I will be with you all in my thoughts.
    Love, Debbie, Dalton and Deidre

    To the family of Doris, I knew her pretty well and I am definitely going to miss her. She always had a smile and in fact, the last time I saw her was about a month ago, and she was in the library. I nearly walked past but then realized she was there. I went in and said, “no way could I walk past you and no say hello”…we hugged and she told me I looked beautiful. SHE was beautiful!! I sure am going to miss her and the fact she always had an encouraging word to say. She will be DEARLY MISSED. I am so glad I got to hug her One Last Time. Until I see her again, I will hold her dear in my memory….God Bless you all and I am so, so sorry for your loss. <3 many hugs. – Daniela

    Dear Alan and Laurie, I was sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. She sounds like a delightful person to know and be with. I know Rose must have been a delight to her as well. Take care and I’ll be thinking of you and your family in the days ahead. Warm wishes, Kathy Hodges from Fuusa.
