My Arthur!! I am heartbroken. My favorite patient ( Dr Patels) You were so rough on the outside, but once I broke through that shell I enjoyed every visit.
Mary....I am so sorry. You both were very special to me.

Smitty, Thank you for loving and taking care of my sister all these years and allowing her to have the loving family you created together. I will never understand the trials you may have endured and not everyone could have done what you did. My family will always remember with delight the times we spent with you and your family. You will be missed. Love

Smitty, thank you, and Mary, for your help with plants (roses) when I moved in. You were a comforting presence across the "park". I enjoyed meeting you and Mary at the Library.
