Linda, Melissa, Tina and family. Thank you for the opportunity of letting me into your family for such a brief period of time. It was wonderful getting to know your mom and each of you.. My prayers and thoughts will be with each of you at this time. I pray God will give each of you the strength and peace to continue to carry on her good will from this day foward.
Sincerely,
Cindy Ducker, LSW (Peachtree Hospice)
