The family wish to extend a special thank you to Dr. Roya Murray for the exceptional care given to our mother. Dr. Murray was not only our mother's Doctor but also her dear friend. We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to the staff of Eagle Lane at Elk Court, who made such a difficult time so much more bearable. Special thanks also to the Palliative Care staff, Dr. Henderson and Dawn Martell. Their kindness will never be forgotten.
