The family would like to express special thanks to the staff of Compassus Hospice; Courtney, Nadia and Cissy; caregivers, Martha, Paulette and Shirley; Emory and Ava Dubose that brightened up Nunu's days when they visited (they were her earthly child angels). With much gratitude and respect to Carson and Carlisle Widdig, the two most beloved and selfless caregivers that any grandparent would be proud and blessed to have. We all slept better knowing you two were watching over Nunu and Pops. We couldn't have managed without the two of you. Thanks to all for all your loving care and support.
In lieu of flowers the family requests memorials be made to Compassus Hospice.
