Dear Staff, Committees, Cooks, Workers and Servers,

Thank you for a most wonderful Hawaiian Family Barbecue on Thursday evening. It was so well planned. The food was excellent and generously served to all! The entertainment was delightful. I am sure that everyone enjoyed the evening, as did Pat and I.

Since my 84th birthday was on the 25th, you can be sure that I shall always remember it, with fond memories of the lovely Hawaiian barbecue dinner, which everyone enjoyed as well.

Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Pat and Teresa Paglen

Dear Sharon,

Amy, Dad and I want to thank you for your patience and assistance as the long and winding road led us from Leisure World to Aspenwood. We had been hopeful that Dad would make a good adjustment to assisted living in time, but we were elated when after just one night and one day he said he liked his new apartment better than his condominium.

Knowing he is comfortable there means the world to us. You answered every question and provided help when we needed it, and we are so grateful!

Sharon Dorfman

P.S. Please pass on our appreciation to Sam for pitching in to get Dad's cable service connected. Now that he has T.V. life is perfect!
