“Through the years, we’ve gotten to know a lot of the people there. Even many of the employees feel like family. I believe this can only happen in a smaller community like Pickersgill. When Mom was in Decker Center receiving care, one of the nurses used some of her handkerchiefs that she had collected over the years and made them into a quilt. She gave the quilt to Dad when Mom passed away. We treasure that quilt.”
