“My name is Jessica Patino. I spoke to Sandy a couple of times while Lula was at Avantara Elgin Nursing Home. I became so close to Lula for the time she was there. I loved her dearly. She had great humor and loved spending moments here and there with her; giving her water, ensure, or just a pep talk. She liked having company in her room. I hope I was able to comfort her in a small way while she was there. I have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. May she rest in peace! -Jess”

“In loving memory of Lula Kirkpatrick, May God give you comfort in your time of grief. I was able to spend some time with Lula while at Avantara Elgin. Last time I saw her was Thu, 04/16/20. She was not the happiest camper but oh my gosh she had humor in her. I became so close to her in just a short time. I did tell her that Thursday that I loved her and would not forget about her. She was a tiny lady but I grew to lover her dearly. May she rest in eternal peace! <3 Love-Jessica”
