Alice was working the day my father passed away. I was a child. I later became a nurse and worked at the hospital. Alice shared with me about the evening my father passed. It was so precious. She was such a great nursing assistant and person.
Dave and family - Sending heartfelt condolences your way. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers in the days to come.
