Death leaves a heartache no one can heal but love leaves a memory that no one can steal. A heart felt appreciation to a special nurse, Alison Lafrenière, who gave us comfort & guidance in this difficult time. Thank you to the staff of the 4th floor Palliative Care Unit, especially nurse Heidi, who provided exceptional care and compassion to our family. The family will receive family & friends at the St-Charles Community Hall on Sunday, October 21st, 2018 from 1 to 5 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Health Sciences North Palliative Care Oncology Floor (4th North) would be appreciated.
