The family’s sincere gratitude goes out to the staff at Taigh Solas, who cared for Mom with so much love and kindness for the past five and a half years. She was in the best of hands always-you are amazing caregivers. Thanks also to Dr. Paul Hickey and Dr. Eugene Ignacio for your care.
Cremation has taken place with a private family service scheduled at a later date. Donations in Mom’s memory can be made to a charity of choice.
