From the first day Ms. Klingler came to St. Paul's to my. Last day she was always one of my favorites. She always told you how she felt one way, or the other. I'm truly going to miss her very much. You have my deepest condolences.

To the family of Mother Shirley, I never got to meet any of you when I worked at St Paul. I worked the night shift.Mother Shirley was a patient of mine,I always looked forward to coming to work because if she up at night she will make my day.She would sometimes ring her light and say she could not get any sleep because she heard a bunch of music and she wanted it to stop, of course it was her room mate who had her tv up loud and I had to tell her room mate to turn her tv down.I am so sorry about your loss,she was a fun patient who always made me laugh especially when I would ask her was she wet and she would always say I am dry, but it was the way that she said it,so cherish the smile, the times that you all had with Mother Shirley and keep them close to your heart,I will pray for your family that you all have peace during this difficult time
