Dear Lou, you will be missed by many. Whle working at Friendship Manor,I enjoyed your spirited sense of humor. You called me Gloria simply because I looked like a Gloria to you instead of a Joanie. :) The thought of that will always make me smile.
Rest in peace...
Joanie/Gloria

How blessed I was in my life to have met and known you Dear Lu. I dearly enjoyed talking with you every time you came to our office. To hear your stories about golfing and all the adventures you had in your almost 99 years of life. You were a classy lady, with a beautiful spirit that shined through your smile. Rest in Peace Dear Lu - you will be missed my all whose lives you touched.
