Dee, You came into our lives right after Katrina.

Your Kind Heart, Sweet Smile, Bubbly Personality, what more can we say. Our hearts are heavy and filled with sadness right now. I called you on Tuesday morning to catch up, you didn't answer so I figured we would talk later.
Well, The Good Lord has you in his hands now and he will take good care of you as you have taken care of your family and patients'.
