Dear Beautiful People at Our Lady of the Meadows, Thank you for all the love and compassionate care that our Mom “ our little MM” received from every one of you. We are so blessed. Mom is smiling down on each of us.

The family of WF wish to say thank you to everyone at Our Lady of the Meadows for their love and care of our mother for the last seven months. We are grateful for Claire and Hib for coming to visit her in Bakersfield and helping us in placing her here. Also to all the Doe’s for the many times we needed help with something about her room or finances. And special thanks to all the staff – nursing, caregivers, housekeeping and kitchen – we know you all had a part in her happiness here. Special thanks to Activities for encouraging her to take part. She was always particularly fond of music. We could not be more pleased with the love that was shown to her. And finally the ladies who were with Mom at her last – the words that come to mind are kindness and professional in how her death was dealt with. You have all been wonderful. Sincerely,

Dear Doe Family and Staff, I want to say a most grateful thanks to you all for the compassionate care my brother received for the year he was with you at “Our Lady”. Bruce has been a man of gentle courtesy, humor, and sense of fun in his earlier life. He has been a man of community, family, always willing to help and support – as a volunteer fireman, boy scout leader for decades, senior leader in Masonic circles for the State of Vermont. I believe he knew he received loving care from kind and patient staff. Those behind the scenes, although not visible to me as Bruce’s visitor, obviously take pride in meeting “Our Lady’s” philosophy. Specifically, I think of the cleaning crew-excellent work all the time. And the cooks I met when I delivered 2 baskets of squash from Phineas Swan’s gardens – genuinely thankful as they prepared evening dinner in an organized and clean kitchen. You all are on your toes all the time – and how appreciative I am. I could only manage the driv…

Thank you so much for taking care of my mother. She passed away in May. I miss her a lot, but I know she is happy where she is at. I am truly grateful for everything you guys have done for her.

You all became such an important part of my life, everyone at Our Lady of the Meadows, residents and staff. I am so grateful for the care that my mother and I received. In the most sensitive and difficult times, I always felt the grace of your love and care. Thank you, sincerely thank you for all that you do for the families and residents at Our Lady of the Meadows.

To the Doe family & Staff at Our Lady of the Meadows, My brother and I wish to take this opportunity to thank you and your incredible staff for all that you did for our sister in the last six years that she lived in your care. Please find enclosed a copy of the eulogy that I wrote that expresses some of the deep feelings that my brother and I have as the result of knowing you all. With deepest appreciation,

Dear Staff of Our Lady of the Meadows (OLM), I am continually appreciative of the loving care you give to my Mom and to all the residents at OLM. Your sensitivity, caring, joy, love, sense of humor, listening and gentleness (to list a few of the attributes I see every time I come to see Mom) warm my heart. In honor of each and every one of you, Mom and I are contributing to your Employee Emergency Fund. Love,

To St. Joe’s staff, I want to thank everyone for the care that my mother received for the time that she was there. I felt she was in a place that she was well cared for and happy. The staff were all fantastic with her. She was safe and happy. Thank you all so much. I only wish she could go back there. Thank you, SL & JR April 2016

I saw the love, I saw the care, your love poured out from everywhere. You are the best at what you do, and no one can compare.It touched my heart to see your love so willing to share. I will not forget how you took care of me and never made me feel alone. You let me sit by her side as Jesus took her home.She’d want us to remember the good, and have hope for each new day, to lift our eyes to heaven and remember to always pray. So with gratitude and thankfulness, a simple prayer to you, may God Bless the Staff at Our Lady of the Meadows in everything you do! Love,
