A special thanks to daily caregiving staff, Debra McAlpine and Clarissa "Bitsy" Ross for the many years of caring and kindness, as well as the Heartland Hospice team: Melissa, Nancy, Candy, Brooke, Tisha, Carmen, Dusty, and Wanda.
To my sister, Barbara Moore, who many times over the last 13 years made a nearly 4 hour round trip to spend time with Lisa, and who never forgot her birthday. You are loved more than I can say.
