❤️ A Family’s Experience: Care that Goes Above and Beyond

Martel was a wonderful companion for our brother.  Although he has not been his primary caregiver, he has enjoyed his visits and was always taken care of very well during his time with him.  We would like to recognize Martel for exceptional care and thank him.
