"So sorry for your loss. I spent a lot of time at Garnet and Arthur's house when I was younger with Heather. Garnet was always so friendly and made me feel at home. I saw her at Arbor Manor last Halloween and she still remembered me after all of these years. I am glad to hear she went peacefully. May God be with your family during this time of loss. Mandi, Scott, Damien and Ayden Eddins"
