I wanted to drop you a note to express my appreciation for everything you did to make for such a smooth transition for our Mother. I have been sharing our experience with my friends and family. You are very caring and conscientious an your ability to make someone feel so "at home" in such a short period of time is a special gift that you have. Thank you again for making this transition such a smooth one!

Just want to drop a note to thank all of the staff for the care that was provided to my mom. It was nice to see my mom smile when each and every one of you would enter her room. I will never forget the kindness you showed us.

Every time I come to see Mom, I feel some apprehension and often cry on the way home. She is a shell, in many ways, of what she used to be. I pray, just bless our time together - and he does.

Today as I was leaving these leaves caught my eye. They had once been something that people would seek out in the fall to appreciate their beauty. They've been blown down in the wind and have disintegrated to a shell. Look, though, now they are intact - all of the veins of life still perfect. I asked a couple of people what they saw in them. "A rotten leaf." To me they are so beautiful in their "earthly imperfection." This to me was one of the many reminders I'm given when things are overwhelming.

Mom is intact and beautiful. Every time I watch you be with her I see it. I am so thankful that you are the one who can look at her as the woman she always was, not a shell, but beautiful as those adornments of youth have faded, sometimes more & more every day.

I love you for it!

I am unable to adequately express my deep appreciation for the caring support and concern you have given to Jack and me- you have made this journey much more bearable. You are all so appreciated, I just can't thank you enough.

The best part of our experience was the staff.

I hope you know how comforting it was when we all walked away and knew they were cared for. The gals in the Memory Unit do their work like they love the residents. That is something that cannot be taught, it comes from within their hearts - The nursing staff, housekeeping and maintenance & kitchen also are all outstanding also.

Thanks for the good experience!
