    Nancy and Lois:
    Sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. Glendale Crossings provided good care as we experienced too. My Mom passed in December and it will seem strange not going there on a regular basis. Wishing you peace and happy memories at this difficult time. Sincerely, Grant

    Sorry to hear about your Mom. It came as quite a surprise as we had no idea that your mother was not well. Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Fond memories of your Mom and Dad will linger forever.
