Theirs was a very special relationship and we so appreciate that. During that time the two of them traveled extensively to see their large family, went to weddings, births, anniversaries, reunions, funerals, and just to be getting together with family. They traveled with their siblings all over the country to places like Jackson Hole, Branson, the Black Hills, and any other site anyone could imagine a trip to. They shared a special bond as sisters. The family would like to thank Hospice of Acadiana and a very special thank you to Hospice nurse Donna Vidrine.
