Tributes
"Annette, Shawn, and family, please know of my thoughts and prayers. Annette, I remember when you started at HFS and you said that if your mom ever needed any help that would be your first priority as she came first before anything else. You were such a loving daughter and how lovely that she could be in Hastings, near you, during her last years. My condolences and hugs!"
