In addition, a very special thanks to Lovelace Hospice Services, in particular, Nancy Liberatore, Swana Garcia, Vickie Hughes, and Laura Garner, for all the love and special care bestowed to Celia while she was under hospice care. She loved each and every one of her caregivers, and we all knew that everyone went over and beyond the call of duty.
