Daughter Michele Sanrocco says, “[Nurse] Meg gave us a jar of hearts that we could pick from to remember my mom. They are priceless and will serve as a never-ending reminder of the love Samaritan showed my Mom during her final hours.” The colorful hearts were placed gently in Susan’s hand to symbolize the eternal love and connection between her and her family and now reside in her children’s homes.
Susan, 90, passed away comfortably on July 9 after her children and grandchildren were able to visit with her.
These special and unique gifts are made by volunteers and help to memorialize and honor a family’s loved one who just passed away on Samaritan’s services.
