Testimonials
"A very gentle man by the name of Glenn came in with his wife Gladys to tour the Lodge and have dinner with us. Glenn is very pleasantly confused and will often repeat his questions. Sometimes he will get his words out, but often they do not make a lot of sense. He tries with great effort in the softest of voices, but they don’t always come out in the correct order and can be very random. After dinner I told them that I was pregnant and expecting later this year. He got very excited and was all smiles.
He got his jacket on and his mesh back WWII cap and stood right in front of me in the doorway of my office. He took his soft sweet hand and rubbed my left cheek. He continued to do this with no words until he gathered his thoughts to say lovingly while looking into my eyes, 'babies need mommies with dimples'. This is where my heart melted."

"Kudos to all the staff at The Lodge for a wonderful Thanksgiving meal with the residents and their families. I appreciate all the extra effort that was made to make everyone feel special. The food was great, and I'm looking at the size of the portions as an attempt to stretch out my stomach in preparation for Thanksgiving on Thursday. I still can't believe my Mom was able to finish everything on her plate. (Not too sure where she puts it all.) The serving staff was lovely with all their attire and kind nature.
Please pass along a 'job well done' to everyone involved. I look forward to future events, as I'm sure many of the residents do also. It was great having an opportunity to talk with the other families and make connections. (Turns out that Virgil's son was a good friend of one of my brother-in-laws and helped coach his sons.)"
Sincerely,
