Florea remembered

I am the daughter of Myrle Llorea, an employee of 0HA's Moloka'i office for more than 10 years. As you know, she left this world on Aug. 22. I would like to extend my utmost thanks and appreciation to eaeh of you for your kind words and prayers. The outpouring of sympathy and

support for my family has been overwhelming. My mother spoke of her friends at work often. She never mentioned anyone as a "co-worker." They were all friends. Most of them I have known for a better part of my life. So well, in fact, that they are a part of our family. I am at a loss to explain the eomfort that all of your words of sympathy have brought our family, I only wish that all of you ean at one time in your lives feel the love and support that I have felt from eaeh of you. My mother was a very giving woman. She gave of her time, her experience and her support to any that would ask. In any unselfish deed, however small, and any random act of kindness, my mother's memory will live on, for this was the type of woman she was. Our love and aloha to you all.
