To the family and friends of Dorothy Larson: I am truly sorry for your loss. Our loving Creator has provided hope and comfort to help us through such difficult times. Isiah 33:24 promises a time when “no resident will say “I am sick”…..John 5: 28,29 promises a resurrection…. Rev. 21:4 promises a time when there will be no pain, outcry or even death……The time will soon come when these scriptures will be fulfilled. In the meantime hold on to the memories of your loved one and prepare yourselves that you may be there to greet them when the time comes.
I am so sorry for your loss. Dorothy was a lovely lady, always happy and upbeat. I worked at Sunrise as a server and she was one of my favorite residents. God Bless. Diane
