Wow, Maureen, your kind words have really touched us. We too wish your dad had lived longer as he was so sweet to us all and a pleasure to look after. A truism about having a loved one in a care home is that we, the staff, end up getting to know visiting families almost as well as the resident themselves. We really got to know your mum very well and yes, she and you and your sister became part of the Eshcol family. When you and your mum were here recently with your very generous gifts I said to her please come and see us whenever you would like to. I'd like to reiterate that, it would be a pleasure to sit and have a cuppa and a chat with her.
