Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system. Moms are the foundations of our families. Our mom was both and she was excellent at both. She was a nurse for forty-five years and we were blessed to call her mom for 87 years. She loved the beach and traveling to numerous places. She was published twice in the newspapers for her talent and love of decorating for Christmas. She is famous for her beauty but more for her love of bling!
The family would like to thank Gentiva Hospice, Kim Kelley Spears, The Kasmeier Family, and CenterWell Home Health.
In lieu of flowers please make donations to One Place of The Shoals – 200 W. Tennessee Street, Florence, AL 35630 or The Caring Place of The Shoals – 216 Marengo Street, Suite I. Florence, AL 35630.
