I was a volunteer at the rouse i painted Jane’s nails. It may seem simple and unnoteworthy but her spirit touched my life and she is missed.
Sarah: I truly appreciate your heartfelt comments and wish I could have met you. I know my mom enjoyed having you paint her nails and would have been pleased to know how you felt about her. Hugs to you — Barb
