Hello family and friends!
We have had so much going on at the Garden. We completed our Joy, Independ-ence and Wellness brochure and have started sharing it throughout the communi-ty. It has been well received. It was such an honor to work with all the amazing families and get their wonderful feedback about their experience at Garden Square of Greeley. We plan to post the testimonials to our website, so you will all be able to see them. The positive feedback the team received was so uplifting for them. They truly give all they can to provide moments of Joy, Independence and Wellness for the Seniors who live here.
In the last couple of months we have had to say good bye to wonderful, amazing, loving Seniors who have touched our lives. It is truly an honor to be able to hold the hand of those who live here, until they move on to their next journey.
Although, it can be hard to say those final good bye's, we are often left with such amazing memories and moments we will cherish forever.
Those of us at Garden Square of Greeley are grateful to each one of you, for your ongoing love and support.
Have a Merry Christmas!
Sincerely,
Candice Salas
