October 24, 2017 at 12:13 pmI had the pleasure of working with Thelma at Stonehill Group Home for just over a year. Her personality and smile were wonderful. That smile could light up a room. She will be sadly missed, not only by those who had the pleasure of working with her, but as well by those who lived with her. Rest in peace Thelma and sweet dreams.
