"Mom is very happy. It is coming up on the anniversary of my Dad's passing and she is feeling it, but we are all here to help her through it. I am so grateful for all the help you gave me in the past two to three years. Your information and responses were phenomenal and I would recommend you personally to anyone. Thanks again."

-- Beth S.

"I want to thank you for all your hard work and most importantly, your support. I really would have been lost without you. Mom is having a few (itsy,bitsy) second thoughts, but for the most part is feeling very positive about the move--a far cry from where we were a month ago."

-- Susan V.
Virginia Beach, VI

"I would like to thank you, and A Place for Mom, for being there for me when I started learning about eldercare and senior living, and embarked on the actual search. Your sound advice and caring guidance provided me with the support and encouragement I needed for this hugely responsible task."

-- Rina S.
