Condolences to the Family

Doris was my Mother’s roommate at The Mennonite Home on the Harrisburg Pike for the last month of her life. I did not know Doris but would like to tell her family and anyone else that she had the BEST CARE possible at the Mennonite home. The staff was very caring and everything to make her as comfortable as possible. The staff has titles such as aid, Nurse, and many others, but I call them Angels!
