Written by Rosalie: I would like to thank the staff of Theda Care at Home Hospice for their wonderful care, and a big thank you to my "two angels" Jean and Julie Hietpas for all they have done for me.
To my very special angel, Brenda Fieck, I loved you so much. May God and His angels always watch over you and keep you in His care.
To my other niece and nephews James, Ron and Luanne, you were like my own children.
And to all my other nieces and nephews who were here for me, I can't thank you enough.
