“We came twice to visit the facility and then again to finally fill out papers to move my wife's brother to your facility. Every time we came to visit we were [greeted] with such caring and kindness beyond required civility. Every one of the staff we meet as we walk around were so kind and caring that we knew this would be the place for our brother. We pray God will protect and encourage your staff as they enriched us in our visits. God Bless and keep you all in his care always.”
