Please accept my deepest condolenses for the loss of Mrs. Scott, I knew Mrs. Scott from the Wellesley where I worked in the Dining Room, she was one of my favorite residents. I had the luck of seeing some of her beautiful carvings when I delivered a room service, she was a very interesting and warm loving lady. I will miss seeing her. She was always kind and friendly and patient woman and had the cutest smile and laugh. It was a honour to have met her and known her.
Thank you.
