The family would like to thank the entire staff at Unity Hospice, especially Laurie and Tammy for all their care and concern. Mom, You are my precious gem filled with unbounded love. Your heart is pure as silver and gold. You were called to a very special place, but you're in my heart and soul. I'll always love you, and know where you are. As I look to the night sky you'll be that sparkling shining star. You'll be shinning brightly, for all to see. But I know that sparkle is meant for me. Sparkling silver and gold glitter watching over me from above, Mom, you're my precious gem, filled with unbounded love. I love you, and miss you, now and always,
Sue
