      I had the privilege of being Bambi’s nurse frequently. We became good friends also and shared many life experiences. She was straightforward, honest in her judgement of you and you knew where you stood with her. I admired her for that. I appreciated her views of life. She was always so kind to my daughter. Her brother and sister-in-law, Gene and Bev Carrington were always so very thoughtful and kind to me. I know she will be missed by her family and all who loved her. Rest in peace Bambi.
