Judith, please accept my condolences at the loss of your mother. I worked for many years at Butler and had the pleasure of knowing your mom and sharing many laughs with her. In her many times of difficulty, especially with the passing of Morty and the time she spent caring for her mother, she maintained such an upbeat and optimistic outlook on life. Her sense of humor was evident in both good and bad times. I will always remember her kind and caring manner…and the love she expressed for you. Sincerely, Chris….one of her many friends in the Butler Hospital Pharmacy.
