DuWayne and family ,
For the short time I got to care for your mom I found her to be a very loving women and I wish I had the chance to know her for longer. I am so very sorry for your loss and know that she is watching over all of you from above.
I knew Naomi from working at the hospital. She was always good to work with. Her family and friends have my sincere sympathy.
It’s terrible to hear about your loss and I express my sincere sympathy to you and your family.
I worked with Naomi many years ago at the hospital. I will always remember her as the most calm nurse, who never got flustered about anything. But I learned quickly, she also had a witty sense of humor. She was one of the kindest people I have met and had the pleasure of working with. I'm very sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful woman and nurse.
