To Lorene´s beautiful family! Your mom- oh how much I loved her!!! We are so sorry for your loss. Please accept our condolences. May your family keep her spirit and light alive throughout the rest of generations. I cannot say enough the love I have for my dear friend. Just her smile and the touch of her hand, calmed any unease. I´ll never forget her beautiful voice singing to patients when they were anxious. She had the most amazing heart- so much love, kindness, patience, and understanding- always outpouring to everyone she knew or met. Your mother was an angel on earth.

She was such a sweet person. She will be truly missed.-Barbara from Compass
The scar I carry on my forehead comes from running in your house that I spent a many of weekends. I ran into the wall and it was your very hands that gave me those stitches and when I became an adult I became a nurse just like my aunt Rene. So whenever I miss you all I have to do is look in the mirror. Until we meet again, love Roo!
RIP auntie. Love you.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
