Thank you, Paramount-Pasadena for taking care of our Hattie Jane the last 4 years of her life. Too many of you to thank, but you are a terrific group of people.
Thank you, Dr. Orahood & Hospice Compassus for sending us a wonderful nurse (Crystal). We chatted, learned and listened to every word. She prepared in advance for what we were going go witness. THANK YOU CRYSTAL.

Dearest Donald and Patricia,
I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother.I hadn't talked to her since my mother died in 2003.
I have many great memories of your mom when I was in my teens and Richard and I were going together. I would often go to her house and Aunt Emma and Uncle Alvins to visit. She was such a loving person and mother thought the world of her.
It's sad how our families grow so fast and lose track of one another.
My thoughts are with you and all of the ones left.
Love from my family to yours.
Lowell Jane (Baker) Cieslewicz
