Aniela,
How sorry I was to read about your Mom's passing. It has been many years since my days at Hartford Hospital, but your mothers' smile (and yours, too) are well remembered from those days. She was tireless, never complained and always made the day a little brighter when she appeared. My sincerest condolences on your loss.
