One of the greatest joys of my job is to receive thank you notes from residents, family, and others concerned who express appreciation for what our hands-on staff do on a daily basis. Then, to be able to pass on these notes of appreciation directly to those who have loved them through this season of life makes that moment even more special!

This is just an example of the many letters that come to me in sincere appreciation for the quality care and services that are provided by the excellent team of Menno Haven’s co-workers on a daily basis. The subject of aging seems so very foreign to many....
