I have worked with Ms. Copeland's son Greg Wolverton at ARcare for many years. I have heard such great stories from him about her and I knew he cared very deeply for his mother. I was saddened to hear of her passing last week. My love, prayers and sincere condolences go out to him and the entire family.
