"Rick, Randy, Ron and family, I?m so incredibly sorry for your loss. Mary and I grew close during the years she spent at Sunset and I?m truly grateful for the opportunity to get to know her and the time we spent together. She was so kind to me and I hope she knew how much I appreciated our talks and her encouragement. Relationships like that are the reason I got into nursing and the reason I love what I do every day. I will always remember her fondly. I?m sending you all many prayers for comfort and peace going forward. She loved you all immensely, that was obvious by the way she lit up every time she saw you or talked about you. Thank you for sharing her with us, my thoughts and sympathies are with you and your family. "

"Boys, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother, I can't attend as I am working Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week.

May God give you peace and comfort in the coming days. Darlene Blacketer Jim and I will be thinking about you."
