She was always taking in some stray dog or cat and providing them with a wonderful home. Our grandmother was a very loving and caring person who loved company. Whenever you came to visit she never wanted you to leave, she always enjoyed visitors at any time, and you were always welcome. She was an excellent cook and created some of the best dinners and homemade soups ever. She was very lucid up to her last days. Her departure has left a void in many peoples hearts, and she will be greatly missed. Our family would like to thank the staff at Tudor House for all the care and attention they provided for our grandmother over the past several months.
