“I met Portia when Wayne was in the nursing home and next door to my mother. She and I became dear friends and had many visits, phone calls and cherished fun times. I will certainly miss this dear little lady but know she is happy to be with Wayne and her dear friend Ruth. She is smiling again. Deepest sympathy to her family.”
