I actually was one of the aides at The Woodlands when she lived there. She was always so sweet, soft-spoken, and courteous. I always enjoyed helping her, especially when I worked as a housekeeper because she always kept her room so tidy and would be very kind to all who helped her. I am sorry for your loss. She was a sweetheart.
