He was always a loner and you can't begin to know what it meant to him to have the love and respect he got from each of you. god Bless each one of you for being there at the end. I've never witnessed so much love for someone. Again, Thanks so much to the entire staff.

Thank you for the flowers in remembrance of my mother, Flossie Burrows. They were greatly appreciated. Also Thank You again for the loving care your entire staff gave her over the last 6 1/2 years. You all truly made her last years on earth worth living with many happy memories. Words cannot express my gratitude.

I can't thank all of you enough. The care, compassion, kindness and genuine friendship you gave to Dad was amazing and a blessing. During bad and frustrating days always remember that each of you have a special gift and are valuable in what you do. Jeremiah 29:11

To all the girls and guys,

Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of my Dad. I don't recall he ever had any complaints which gave our family total peace of mind. He loved all the special attention he received (smackers & smiles). You all tended to his every need. Also treated me, Howie and our family with such warmth and kindness.

Thanks too for all of you who showed your love to Daddy and our family by coming to the visitation and his service. When I thought about it, after being at Riverways for almost three years, I imagine he was part of your family , not just a resident.

Keep up the good work. I'll be in to visit and I will miss you all. Charlie too!!

Much Love,

Susan
