  6. I got great pleasure in meeting Mrs. Thompson when she was in the hospital this last time. She was a great women to have gotten to meet. You know being a student and all Mrs. Thompson made me feel so good about my performance in Respiratory Theraphy. I remembered one night in the ICU the doctor needed a blood gas to see if she could be weaned down on her oxygen and I went in there I was already nervous because I knew how bad they hurt to have them be done on a person and Mrs. Thompson told me not to worrry about it because she knew I would not hurt her. I felt so much better!!! After it was over she told me, see I did not know you had even done it yet. She was such a good lady. She will be greatly missed!! But she is a blessing in Heaven!!!! It was so nice meeting her daughter up there on the ICU side and the step down side. I am the one who got her nebulizer medicine changed for her so her heart would not race!! I am so sorry for your loss but I will look forward to see her again one day!!

  15. Chloe was such a joy to be around and was always the life of the party. She always had a joke to tell. I am blessed to have spent time with her at the Mitchell’s home on both joyous and tragic occasions.

  16. I guess everybody is lucky if they have a special favorite Aunt, and I was very lucky to have Aunt Chloe as mine. She treated me like a daughter. Whenever I’d visit, we’d talk for hours, and she was the most tolerant loving funny open person. Everything that ever came out of her mouth was a joke, a story, or a big hearted laugh. I always felt much lighter and loved after spending time with her. Susan, I can only hope my relationship with my daughter is nearly what yours was with Chloe. She will live forever in the hearts of those who knew her.
