Moving into a senior development was a challenge for our family. It was a big step. We women are the nesters in the family and I wasn’t ready. No one prepared me for the beautiful lady,one who would make it one of the most pleasurable experiences in my life....One day. Shortly after moving in we happened to be outside collecting our mail. After introductions, we slowly got into our families, residences and life’s work. She had been a nurse at a near-by hospital, where I had volunteered. I recognized her name from time cards I had filed for the nursing supervisor. That was the beginning of our long lasting bond. We became good friends sharing stories so easily it was like we had known each other since childhood. In actuality, we were separated by a bunch of years which never entered into our relationship. We traded so many wonderful stories including much laughter and some tears, it was like having one of my own sisters living next door. She shared her philosophies of life and I shall carry them with me forever. One of the beautiful memories I shall cherish is that her children called her “Mother” with such love and respect. We don’t often hear it today.....it says so much doesn’t it? God Bless your gentle soul and let perpetual light shine upon you. Thank you for the deep, wonderful friendship we shared those many years. Have fun with the angels.....
With love and admiration, Pat Poelker
