We have not had the priviledge of knowing your mother personally, but my husband and I feel as though we know a lot about her and it is all good.

Tom and Linda have spoken often about her to me and my husband. We feel confidant that she is now with our Lord. Tom told us that she always let every one know where she stood as a follower of Jesus. She was kind and generous and we know from the times she called while we were with Linda and Tom, that she loved her family deeply. We would like you all to know that Tom's extended family here in Arizona send our heartfelt condolences.

Love in Christ,
Clayton and Lynda Baker

Thank you. ALL the folks at Hickory House Nursing Home did a fantastic job caring for Mom and caring for us, the family. The love and attention given to all of us during the past year and a half went beyond the call of duty. I am so glad I had the opportunity to witness a GREAT nursing home...NO horror stories here! Thanks again.
