A special thank you to Cabrini Hospice and the nursing staff at The Oaks.

Both mama and daddy had decided some years ago to be buried in the cemetery near their parents. Mama is in Campbell Cemetery (near Centerpoint where she grew up) and daddy is in St. John the Baptist Catholic Cemetery in Moncla (where he grew up). They are about 17.5 miles apart.
