We have had occasion in the last couple of weeks to reflect on Eda’s work, and want to let you know more specifically why we feel so thankful for her care of Mary. We found Eda to be trustworthy, reliable and truly focused on Mary’s care. We feel so fortunate that such a capable person, with such heart and positive approach, was by Mary’s side and provided the care she needed – and went the extra mile to make it as comfortable as possible in all respects. Best regards, Judy (letter)
