Bummer
I was just thinking about this lady..Wondered if I had somehow missed the news report about her safe return home. Unfortunately, according to the AJC, her funeral is set for Wednesday at 1 p.m.

Her fate is just so profoundly sad. The fact that she was only 500 yards from home makes it almost unbearable, doesn’t it? Because I remember the news stories and the search parties, some of them looking as far north as Dunwoody, if I recall. But the question remains: Who was supposed to be watching her? If you’ve a relative with late-stage Alzheimer’s, you have to realize that they can no longer be held accountable for their own whereabouts and someone has to take that burden from them.
