Dear Family Members of Blanca Dejesus,
I was Blanca's supervisor the entire time that she worked at Children's Therapeutic Center in Allentown. I will never be able to describe what Blanca meant to all of the children and staff at CTC. Blanca was an incredibly hard worker and was so competent that she took on duties that others could not. Everyone from co-workers to supervisors had the utmost respect for Blanca. Even the program's Executive Director, Naomi Grossman, valued Blanca's concerns because she was always honest, responsible, and dependable.
Blanca was the rock that held the staff that she worked with together. Unfortunately, there are not enough words to describe what Blanca meant to the children and staff in the program. Blanca lived a wonderful life and will never be forgotten by any of us at CTC.
Also, Blanca was kind enough to take care of my children when they were very young, and I made a 10 day trip out of the country. My children at that age, could be very difficult, but Blanca took on the responsibility for my children because I didn't have any family that could stay with them for that length of time. When I returned, I remember all of my children telling me that they loved having Blanca at the house and wanted her to come back again.
Blanca meant so much to me as a person and coworker. My family and I are having a mass offered for Blanca on February 8th, 2017 at 7:00AM at St. Thomas Moore Church in Allentown, PA. I hope this condolence gives your family a glimmer of the incredible life she lived and how many people she touched.
Sincerely,
Deb McGrail
