We would like to thank your staff for the compassionate care you all gave Marie during her final months. Not only did you help her, but also us. Being available if there were any concerns, giving comfort to our hearts knowing that she was being well taken care of, helping us spiritually and making the transition much easier for all of us.

We want to thank you for all your thoughtfulness and kindess in making our wish come true. Francis is a horseman through and through and so enjoyed his time with Misty. It also eased his mind to see how well she is doing. Thank you for giving us a day of special memories.

Manly Specialty Care

Thank you so very much for taking your time and initiative to help Dad and I find a way to keep Mom in your wonderful facility. You didn't have to help us. Many other facilities would have kicked Mom out for inability to pay. Your compassion and knowledge is infinite and we are forever grateful. Mom is thriving with the exceptional care she is receiving there.

I would like to thank your staff on every shift at Care Initiatives - State Center for looking after my friend and neighbor. I would appreciate very much if you could let the evening and night shifts know how she is a kind and loving person and has been throughout her life. I'm thankful that she has a place to turn to in the time of her life where she needs more assistance.
