I am so sorry to know of Maria's passing. She was always such a calming and pleasant person and she did such wonderful work with our clients at Griswold Home Care. She was never short on stories or subjects to chat about and her smile was simply infectious. Our entire office staff was completely floored to hear the untimely news of her passing and her clients are all very sad as well. She has left a huge gap in many people's lives and will be deeply missed by many.
In loving memory of Maria (Mia). You will always be remembered as a very special part of our family. Your smile and laughter brought us much joy at all of our Shin Digs and family occasions, not to mention the wonderful Portuguese food that you always shared! Our condolences and love to your precious family. Until we meet again may every moment in heaven be a beautiful beach day. With love, Barbie, Joe, Mike, Billy, Courtney, Matt, Shannon, & Nick
