Today and during the month of September, we pause to honor the memories of two remarkable souls, Carla Williams and Crystal Gonzalez, who devoted themselves to the well-being of their community. Their tireless dedication, strength, and compassion left an indelible mark on everyone fortunate enough to know them. While we mourn and reflect during the anniversary of their passing, we also remember the love, smiles, and light they brought into the lives of so many.

Their loss was deeply felt by the entire staff and community, and the heartbreak experienced is a reflection of the profound impact they had. The strength of these two women carried many through difficult times, and their love will continue to inspire us in their absence.

Though their physical presence is no longer with us, their legacy of kindness and dedication lives on in the hearts of those who had the privilege to work alongside them. We miss them dearly, but we are grateful for the time we shared and seek to honor the memories they leave behind.

May we continue to honor their memory by upholding the values they embodied and carrying forward the compassion they showed to all.

"Remembering two remarkable souls
who devoted themselves
to the well-being
of their community.

Though you’ve journeyed beyond the rainbow’s embrace,
Your love endures with timeless grace.
In the hearts of those you’ve comforted and cured,
Your memory is forever embraced and adored.

We miss you."
