She spent countless hours visiting her numerous friends and assisting them with their various needs; she also donated generously to a number of religious and pro-life causes. The family would like to thank everyone at Marlborough Health Center for their kindness and exquisite care of their beloved mother this past month, as well as her aide, Anita, who was her faithful companion for the past three years.
