A-4 Local Wednesday, August 15, 2018 The Press-Dispatch e family of Bobbie Jean (Hadlock) Kell wants to con- vey their heartfelt thanks for the care of our dear Moth- er, Grandmother, and Great-Grandmother, to those who were with her during recent months. She came to love the residents and staff at Golden Living Center and they re- turned that love. e nurses and CNAs, and various other staff went beyond what was expected and paid special at- tention to her as she declined. For that, we will be forever thankful. While there, she was visited by her friends from Lake- wood Assisted Center, where she had previously resided. ey never forgot her and it meant so much when she saw them. Also, Dr. Gary Keepes and his staff at the Deacon- ess Clinic in Petersburg took excellent care of our Mother since she moved to Petersburg. ey were never too busy to listen to our concerns and try to come to a remedy that made her feel better. And during the last few weeks of this beautiful woman's life, Asera Care Hospice offered their services to help both our Mother and ourselves as we struggled with the changes in her life and they were available when needed. Mr. Jerry Basham and his staff at Lamb-Basham Memori- al Chapel in Oakland City were especially attentive to the needs of our family and friends that paid their respects. We appreciate what you all have done on behalf of our loved one. We are also so thankful for the post funeral meal provid- ed by the First General Baptist Church in Oakland City. In addition, we thank each person for every act of kind- ness during this most difficult time: cards sent, calls re- ceived, food prepared, visits, gis, flowers, Gideon Bibles, memories shared, and most of all for the prayers that were lied up. Many thanks to everyone that touched our Mother's life, our lives, and helped us through. Thank You In appreciation, The Bobbie H. Kell Family THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU!
