I wish to thank the staff at San Jose Nursing Center for watching over my brother, Jose Andres Gauna. He arrived there in December, 2019 after suffering a debilitating stroke. He was placed in the same room with his wife, who has been there for many years. My brother passed away, Aug. 3, 2021. May he Rest in Peace. I know the work they do is not easy. It takes a very special person to care for patients like my brother and his wife.
