Our dad made friends wherever he went this last year. The family would especially like to thank everyone who befriended him during his brief stay at Prairie Hills Assisted Living, the Mercy Hospital ICU staff, and the staff of the Oldorf Hospice House, all of whom made this journey more bearable for each of us.
