Alicia was a loving stay-at-home mother and her favorite pastime was visiting with friends and family. She particularly enjoyed sitting outside on sunny afternoons watching the birds and eating popsicles. Any flavor except grape would suit her just fine. She absolutely loved seeing the flowers growing in her garden.
When not at home she loved perusing through the aisles at Wal-Mart and Ross searching for that one favorite item.
We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the Hospice caregivers. Through their support these last two years, our family was able to enjoy Alicia’s company under a more positive light during an extremely difficult time. The support they provided us truly made our lives easier to balance with the pain we went through. We could have not done it without this precious organization. Our family is greatly indebted to you.
