The family would like to thank Oak Creek Assisted Living for making our mom feel welcome in her short stay.

She loved sitting in the sunshine. She loved sleeping with a window open. She loved lunch with her friends. She loved pulling weeds in the flowerbeds with her daughter, and watching the Packers on a Sunday afternoon. She loved playing with Sue and Bob's dogs.   She loved listening to Big Band music and doing crossword puzzles. She loved donuts and ice cream and a hot cup of coffee.   But most of all she loved her family.
