Here are just a few comments from families who have had loved ones at Eddy Alzheimer's Center at Hawthorne Ridge ...

"Thank you so much for the wonderful care you gave my dad. I knew from the minute I saw Hawthorne Ridge, it was the best place for him. You are all so special - you are angels for taking such good care of the Alzheimer's residents there. You do it in a loving and caring way. Keep up the great job!"

"Our family would like to extend our thanks to your staff for the loving care they provided our mother. It has been very painful to watch Alzheimer's disease rob mom of her beautiful memories and sap her spirited, humorous and dignified approach to life. Through this relentless decline we were comforted by your staff's support and care. They have no easy task, but there is none more noble than caring for society's once loving parents, those who went off to war or conquered the Depression or built careers in industry or educated or cared for us. These heroes have run their race and are now dependent on us. It is your employees that fight day to day, hour to hour, to maintain their health and dignity. Please thank them for what they do for us and for our loved ones. They, too, are heroes in their own right and should be so very proud."
