The family would like to acknowledge and thank Dr. Luke Scamardo, the staff and Navasota Nursing and Rehab and Traditions Healthcare and Hospice for their love, care and compassion. Also, Father Eli Lopez and the Eucharistic Ministers of Christ Our Light and St. Stanislaus Catholic Churches for their visits.
