New Beacon
Thank you for being such a competent and caring company. All of you remained calm, even when I was scard and uncertain. You showed acceptance of me, my friends, my dog, and my life - and that made me feel safe. You listened when I talked, and always knew the questions I needed answers to ~ even when I didn't know I had them. You reassured us all and gave us the tools and knowledge to make the best decisions and take the right actions. Your guidance has made this entire experience a bit easier.
May your tenderness never be abused, your cheer never dampened and may your halos never tarnish.
You have been our star and may it always shine brightly.
From: A patient and his caregivers
Thank you
