This letter was recently received by the Assisted Living staff at Eskaton Village Carmichael. It warms our hearts and brings tears to our eyes to read these words from a loving daughter.

"You were all caring friends to my mother. She lived to be 98 years old as a direct result of your care, compassion, love and friendship. You all went way beyond the norm in the care you provided.

She loved all of you and always spoke highly of each one of you. You became part of her family and as a result, part of ours. We appreciated the extreme kindness you showed her during her last days at assisted living.

I heard that each of you visited her at skilled nursing to say goodbye and it touched me deeply. Thanks to all and each of you from our family for your unselfish, dedicated and loving care."
