Our Mom had a beautiful and blessed 84 years of life, full of love and happiness.
Her memory will live in our hearts for a lifetime. We know she is dancing in the sky with Bill to an old Elvis Melody and sprinkling her sunshine down on us.
We will remember her with the green in our plants, and the sparkle of a rainbow after the storm. When we see a sunflower, we will remember you are always watching.
We love you, Gigi. We want to thank everyone for the love & support offered at this time.
The family would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to Harmony Manor and the entire staff, Tony who would routinely help with puzzles, & Beau for going above and beyond in your sincere care for our mother in her times of need.
