Jacqueline, oh - thank you - it is fun to visit with her, too!

Thanks for bringing Loretta back to us, even for just a little while!! I do love her so much, please hug her for me the next time you see her. I am SO glad you had the heart to keep visiting and caring, even with all else you do, otherwise we would have lost this precious lady forever. Bless you, Shirlene, for taking the time to care. Hugs, Marji

Marji, she is fun to visit, of coarse and I learn from her - all the time - something or other. *4U

Thanks Shirlene for sharing these lovely pictures of a beautiful woman. What a wonderful friend you are to go and visit.

I think the women and men who work in aged care are Angels. God bless all of our carers.

Love to you and thanks for Miss Loretta's pictures she looks happy and serene.

Love Chris

Lillian, thank you so much - I knew you would want to see these pictures. You are always so sweet and kind, too. *4U

Brings tears to my eyes. Why do we have to get old and feeble and suffer so much before we leave this earth? Just does not seem fair.

Please give Miss Loretta my love and very best wishes. It is so wonderful to see her smiling and know she is at least happy.

Thanks so much for sharing Shirlene and for being there for her for all of us.
Hugs n love, M

Libbie, thank you - she is doing so much better than she was several months ago and she would get a kick out of you saying that you would like one of those signs - but I have to tell you - she really thought they put it up for her and her alone. *4U

Oh My, she looks Beautiful and so happy.
Her hair also looks beautiful and I'm sure she feels better when she gets her hair done.

I wish I had been around "Cute" when she was still active. She is such a sweet lady.
Tell her hello from all of us.

Jerrilyn, she does ask about you all the time - I keep telling her that you are still the same sweet lady that you always have been - she laughs and says - don't let her double dip - I guess that is something between the two of you - Hehehe! *4U

by jrob 23 May 2009

Tell her for me that since she isn't around much to catch me I get away with it most of the time now!

Thankyou for sending the pictures. It was nice to hear from her yesterday too! She's a sweetheart.

Oh Laura, she is a sweet lady - who couldn't be kind to her? *4U

I took a drive and visited with Loretta today - it just happened to be the same day that she got her hair done and she was so pretty - she says that each time she gets her hair done -- she thinks of the CUTE family - she was so sweet and happy to be around - everyone at the skilled nursing center adores her. Her eyes are bad - because of glocoma - so she has to have drops in them several times a day - that is why they are swollen and red. She was napping when I got there - but we took a stoll around the center and located this great sign - she told me that they made it for her - because she can't remember any more - I had to laugh right out loud with that one. There were several all along the walls in different wings, too - Hehehe! She sends her love and respect and thanks you all for loving her.
