Letter: Family appreciates care, compassion

Our mother, Josephine M. Cheney, passed from this world to a better place surrounded by her family on Feb.9 at St. Rita’s. We would like to thank everyone for their excellent care from: anesthesia, cardiology, intensive care, step-down and 6-7 unit.

The doctors and nurses caring for our mother went above and beyond with their compassion during a difficult

time for mom and the family. We especially want to thank Father Charles for praying with mom and the family during her previous admission to the hospital and this one. Father Charles delayed Mass to be with our family in mom’s passing which was a great comfort to us all.

— David C. Miklos, The Cheney Family
