I enjoyed my short time caring for Kitty! She always had a tale to tell me and I appreciated seeing the loving care her family provided her with. I will miss working with her and my thoughts are with the family, she has so many wonderful members in her family that will create many memories of their own that started with Kitty and her husband. It was my pleasure and I am blessed to have had time with Kitty.
