Guest Book

Mrs Dorothy became my buddy. She and her family showed me what community and family are about, and boy did we share some laughs more-so than not! I always felt welcomed. She was the most "spry" 99 year old I've ever had the pleasure to meet. Her sweet smile and love for all is something I will always admire. Rest easy sweet angel, keep smiling down on us. Gracious God, give her a big bear hug for me.
