I met Mena at Sterling House where my parents reside and from the moment I met her I had felt like I'd known her forever. She was a good sport about my borrowing John for a few games of pool and over the last few years became like family. I'll always remember the sparkle in her eye and the warmth and love she so generously gave. You will be missed Mena ❤ - Posted by: Cathy (Gilbert) Therrien (Friend) on: Apr 08, 2013
