So happy we got to spend some time visiting you during our vacation last August. We had just visited your dear sister, Angel, who showed us all your beautiful crafts, knitting, needlepoint, roses made from plastic spoons, etc.. It was so comforting to see that you were getting very good care and lots of TLC from your dear aides at the Bedford Nursing Home. Only wish we could have visited you more often. However, our thoughts and prayers were always with you. We love you. Please watch over us.
