    Truly thanks for your services to the American Red Cross and patients in need! Definitely enjoyed my time working with you at the Fremont Community blood drives as you always had a smile on your face and a heavy heart. Only fitting that your funeral will be on the first day of the Fremont Community blood drive as I know many will be thinking about you when they donate and all the lives that you touched while working with the American Red Cross!! Continued prayers go out to the family and friends!
