As you read this heart-warming book, you will hear the stories of many of Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly's \"sweet people.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMary Anne devotes herself to loving the special people God sends her way. Veranda clients have quickly become her extended family. When she married last October, female clients were her bridesmaids. Peggy, a fifty-nine-year-old client suffering from early-onset Alzheimer's, was her maid of honor, and ninety-four-year-old Florence was her flower girl. When the wedding ceremony was about to begin, Miss Edna, a Veranda client who had been fluent in French but hadn't spoken it in two years, hugged Mary Anne and whispered in her ear, \"Je t'aime.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMost clients can't remember their director's name, but when they are in her presence, they never forget she loves them. Mary Anne plans to spend the rest of her life \"remembering\" for them and hopes others will do the same. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMary Anne said, \"I pray that this book will help families prepare for their journey with their loved ones experiencing brain changes. I pray that the stories I share will encourage them not to give up. Families who have loved ones in communities now. Families who are taking care of loved ones at home. I understand the challenges as they walk with their loved ones on a journey into the world of aging.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDebra Talley of The Talleys, a Veranda Ministries Board Member, made this comment: \"Mary Anne has been a friend for years. One of the things I love about her is her heart for people. Her heartbeat is for the people she cares for through her work on behalf of the senior adult population. I know you will enjoy her voice, but I hope you will listen to her heart.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798861806435\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48137124774143,"sku":"9798861806435","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ebdd320-6749-4521-a139-ba38b54caec1.jpg?v=1770166704","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/remember-for-me-mary-anne-oglesby-sutherly-9798861806435","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
