My deepest condolences to the Cochran family. I had the pleasure of caring for Ms. Cochran during her residency at the Island Oaks facility a few months ago. I will always remember her smile and nodding head in agreement to most anything especially when concerning family. I will keep you in my prayers wish you many hidden blessings during your time of sorry. Love Always

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
