Our family would like to thank everyone at The Pines of Sarasota and Tidewell Hospice of Sarasota that cared for our mom and for your love and support. She was the strongest woman we ever knew as well as being so beautiful. She had the most loving big smile, the bluest eyes and the cutest button nose, but her looks, never compared to how breathtaking her soul was. She was the most wonderful mother and friend and was loved by all. She was our Angel here on Earth and we were all so blessed, to have the gift of her in our lives.
