Evelyn’s family would like to thank the staff at Healthy Life Care Home for the exceptional care Mom received for the last few months, staff at Luther Heights, and the medical professionals that were involved in Mom’s care the last several years.

A special thank you to her close friends Bea, Helen & Joan.
