Ms. Catherine has been one of my favorite residents since 2018. I will never forget her pink flamingo glasses and her smile. She was always such a joy to be around, full of love and laughter. Even after she could no longer get around as well, she would would still greet you with a great big smile and hold out her hand for yours, so she could spread her loving nature. So many great memories! I know she will be one of those that sticks with me a lifetime.
