“We would like to offer our sincere thanks and gratitude to the amazing staff of LHGS who gave exceptional care to our loved one Ted Gathman while he was in the Joy wing. Thank you for the pancakes, cookies, hot chocolate, ice cream, back rubs, and all the other extras that Ted so enjoyed. We had staff who sat on Ted’s bed, holding his hand long after their shift had ended. One staff member brought a salad for us to enjoy at our Easter dinner in the Coffee Shop. All of you touched Ted’s life and the lives of all his family. We will be forever grateful for the care and compassion that was shown to us. So many of you became our lifeline during one of the most difficult times in our lives. You should be very proud of your staff of social workers, nurses, CNA’s Chaplain, and employees in dietary, therapy, maintenance, housekeeping, laundry, and business offices who made Ted’s last months so pleasant. Everyone went way beyond any of our expectations. We will keep all of you in our hearts and always in our prayers.”
