Sincere condolences to you Kim, and all the family on the passing of your Mom. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
I was saddened to hear of your Mom’s passing. I visited your mom at Westmount Gardens with my therapy dog Koko. Koko loved her. Your mom was the sweetest & loved to tease. When we started to visit her she picked up her virtual cat that started to move & purr which freaked my dog out a bit. So after that every time she saw Koko she would ask Koko where the cat was which sent her on a search of her room. We’ll miss her. May she RIP

Lorraine was two doors down from my husband’s room . We always smiled and waved at each other in the dinning room. I admired her beautiful dresser and learned its history. I admired her wanting to read and took her some books I thought she might like. It is sad seeing her empty seat. Sincere condolences to her family.
