A private life!
Becoming old/older comes with a price. That being seeing others pass away before you. And carrying their life with you.
It is with great sadness. That I write these words in memory of my aunt Rose. She lived a full life a good Christian life! Though she never married nor had children of her own. She was loved, adored and respected by all who knew her. She will be truly missed! Surviving family members wish to thank all the Staff at Brookdale for their kindness and compassion they gave Aunt Rose!
May she rest in peace.
