| We have been so grateful that you had such a wonderful place for Dad to be a part of these last 2 years.
Right from day one it was amazing! We loved the warmth you and your staff have generated. The lovely inclusive feeling that you manage to have at Dominion Home is special. You have managed to get beyond a staff and residents situation - you have a family! |
