What our Families are Saying

My mom, Frances Catron (101 yrs,), and I had a great time visiting and eating together Thursday nite at the "Boston Marathon" meal at Commonwealth South Boston. The meal was very good. I want to mention Ruth Garner for all her care of mom over the past couple of years. She is excellent at her profession. I am only sorry that she is there only a couple of days a week due to retirement. I wish all the caregivers could be as compassionate as she. Thanks for everything all of you do for Mom and the other residents. Rev. Dr. Roger E. Wilborn

– Roger Wilborn
