Hi Julie, I hadn't talked to your Mom in a while. We go way back knowing each other. We worked together at Finger Lakes and Oaklawn Park in Ark. I'm sorry that I didn't know she was at Ewing or would have visited her. She was such a lovely person and I'm happy to have known her. I'm sorry for your loss.
