Our family is deeply saddened by the passing of Veronica . She was my mother’s
caregiver for 10 short months, but we feel like we’ve known Veronica for years.
Her daily “happy” presence and wonderful care for Mom will never be forgotten.
Veronica’s confidence and strength from the first day of Mom’s stroke throughout the 7 months following were exceptional. We thank God for her skills and her love for Mom. We thank God for her! Yes, indeed!
I am enriched by her loving relationships with her siblings, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren as she shared many stories with us. We continue our prayers for comfort and strength for every one of them, and all who knew and loved her. We love you, Veronica.
JoEllyn, for the Lois Abadie family
