To the Staff at BEELONG, R. went to BEELONG with a smile on her face, and when I picked her up the smile was there for me. I always knew that she was getting the very best from all of you and for this I thank you from the bottom of my heart. We are at a crossroad now and your prayers and thoughts are most appreciated. It was a pleasure for me to have had the opportunity to get to know all of you. Just remember how very special you are. S.A, family of R.S.
The time he spent at BEELONG was a big help to me in getting adjusted to a new home and a new location. He also thrived with the assistance of the caring staff at that location. Everyone there made him feel special and I felt they took a special interest in him. I will always be grateful for the time he spent there and the care given him. He is a special person. You provide a much needed service and handle it so well. J.G.
I thank God every day that BEELONG is there for Dad and the others. Keep up the good work. J.T.
It has been three months since Mom passed away. When my husband and I look back on her last year, we are very grateful for the love and happiness she found at BEELONG. Being there renewed her purpose in life. I wish I knew about your Center sooner. She suffered from bad health as well as depression from being so ill. I am convinced that the Center so improved her outlook on life that it kept her illness from progressing faster. Mom felt very special when you went to visit her in the hospital and all her friends sent her cards and homemade gifts.... Before Mom went to BEELONG, she would sit home confined to the couch for hours at a time with just the TV for company. It was a stressful time....trying to coordinate schedules...to come home to give her lunch and check on her two or three times a day. It was a pleasure to go to work and know Mom was in good hands and very happy... T.C.
Each & every one of you will be remembered as one of my blessings tomorrow on Thanksgiving. Your help & kindness to my mother is so very much appreciated. I'm sure you will all be blessed for your good work. E.S.
Just wanted to thank BEELONG for the wonderful care and leadership. Last week I had my meeting about P.'s program with Richelle, Maryanne and Shirley. They were so kind and helpful to me concerning my unique situation with husband and son. I don't know what I would do without the BEELONG program and loving, dedicated staff. God bless you! N.W.
Thank you for taking the time to talk with me. Sometimes it's really nice to hear an encouraging voice. I just wanted to let you know how appreciated you are. Thank you again. A.M.
I would like to make a donation to BEELONG, in memory of my mother S.S. to mark the anniversary of her death. I chose BEELONG because I know the time she spent at the Center was a happy time for her. She always "perked" up upon entering and was reluctant to leave in the afternoon. Your caring staff were marvelous. Again, I want to thank you for being there when we needed you. I hope the community appreciates the wonderful service you provide for our senior citizens. B.C.
I do not have any complaints regarding BEELONG. I was always notified if something happened to my mother. Trayci and Betty have been particularly supportive and helpful to me. At a time when I was getting mixed signals from my mother's primary care physician, they encouraged me to bring my mother back to BEELONG several weeks after a serious fall. Fortunately, she was ready to resume her life. Trayci also allowed me to vent several times over a period of months with constant upsetting family issues. Each time she patiently listened and offered great advice. She, along with the rest of the Staff, truly care about each and every client. BEELONG is a tremendous asset for families in need and I will always be grateful. D.S.
