Zora, it was a pleasure to take care of Mr. Pritchard. When he was having a difficult night a piece of chocolate would help. I would ask him to sing “On The Wings Of A Snowwhite Dove. He loved Sundays so he and Doris could sing together. He is greatly missed. Thank You for allowing us to take care of him.You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,Connie
