I just want the family of my loving Mavis to know how very sorry I am for their loss. I worked with her for the past year, and became very attached to her. She was like a grandmother to me. I spoiled her with her favorite snacks, and she spoiled me with her hugs and love. She was a wonderful, loving woman, and I am very thankful to have been a part of her life for the past year. I will never forget her!!

I was one of the CNA at the Windsor that did not actually have the opportunity to directly care for her but would stop in to say hi and check on her and on occasions would assist another CNA in her care.  She always was a joy especially when  asking her to smile and then telling her how pretty her smile was and the light in get eyes was.  Ms Mavis had a heart of gold and I thank the family for entrusting her care to us.  I myself loved her like family and will truly miss her.  Her smile I will forever remember.

I'm very sorry for your loss. May the God of comfort give you hope and strength in this tough time. Isa. 40 : 29 

Thank you so much for sharing this message of your time with Mavis. This is so comforting for me to know.

Our family so enjoyed our visits with Mavis at the Windsor, praying together, holding hands and sharing God's love. Sitting in the sun light or seeing her head lift as Gail or I came up the drive, and her visits with Carol, our mother. We know without a doubt that you are smiling with Jesus. We are so blessed to have had time together. See you in heaven dear friend!
Sheron, Gail, and Carol

Precious Mavis, I am happy 7 days prior to your death, Gary and I got to tell you again how much we loved you and how much you meant to us all these years.

I am happy you are now residing in your heavenly home where you will receive peace, comfort and love from your Heavenly Father.

I will miss you here on earth however, I am comforted knowing I will see you again one day.

I love you so much!
Your cousin, Jill
