A Family Gives Thanks

Monday, September 21, 2020


Dear Scott,

This is the day you never want to come, even though it is inevitable. My wonderful dad passed on September 11, 2020 at 12:30 p.m. Some would say that 95 years old is a good long life, while I can't disagree, knowing he's not there with his characteristic smile will take a long time to get used to. I will miss my visits and all of the faces and names I have come to know as well. You, Kathleen, Lorena, Ivonne, Karla, Ismary and all of the others whose names escape me but whose faces are as familiar as my own family.

I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the care and loving you gave my father.....even when he got feisty! The Elms became his home and I know that because I would ask him, his response was, you know, this place is OK! It was said in such a way that you knew he meant it.

As much as he wanted to stay at his home, he settled in at The Elms where he was safe and well cared for. The peace of mind you have given us is incalculable and we are forever indebted.

COVID-19 has taken so much from all of us, it has robbed us of the ability to show just how grateful we are, I would love to give all of you guys a hug and a handshake but sadly I can't. So I write, inadequate as this letter is please know that every word on this page is true. 

You are all angels and heroes to us and we will  never forget you, God Bless you.

 In Your Debt,

Ken (son of Bob, photo above)
