Faye wishes to thank the exceptional nursing staff, 5th and 6th floors, at St. Agnes Hospital, as well as her wonderful doctors. They went above and beyond taking care of her.

The Hospice Preceptor team Marie, Renee, Kori, Hannah, and the chaplain were a comfort to her and her family.

Adelaide Place, her assisted living facility, helped in her final days, also. Chrissy, Erica, and many others were so kind to her in the short time she lived there. We couldn’t have gone through this without them.
