My Dad, Cecil Moix, was a resident at Trillium for several years. Kathy brought him the Eucharist there. Her visits enriched his life, not only with the blessings of Holy Communion but with her smile and kind words. He told me that she was "a special lady". The days of her visits were marked on his calendar.
Our family extends our appreciation and sympathy to Kathy's family.
