Condolences… May God bring peace and comfort to you and your family during this difficult lose.
Prayers for the Gentry Family.
I always enjoyed talking with Mrs Gentry when we had hair appointments with Cindy Hite. She was a special lady. One of sweetest. She will be missed by all that knew her.
I remember Mrs. Gentry when she nursed at Heritage Hall when my mother-in-law was a patient there. Mrs Gentry was so very kind to her and she loved her. The family was most appreciative. God bless and comfort the family in this sad time.
One of the sweetest kindest most beautiful nurses I ever worked with!! Just full of love for her husband and family. A pure joy to know and so sad to hear of her passing
