Senior Humor
Locked Out
One rainy evening, my husband, John, and I emerged from a restaurant only to find that he had locked the keys in the car. He insisted he could open the door with a wire coat hanger, so we went back to the restaurant to get one. There were none to be found.
John then ran to a department store a quarter-mile away and returned with a hanger. After a few attempts, he got the door open and we climbed in. As we sat there, soaked and cold, he stuck the hanger under his seat.
With a smug grin, he said, "Now if this ever happens again, I'll have one handy."

We're Delighted to Hear from Families About Our Exceptional Care!
A Satisfied Client's 5-Star Review:
"I chose Visiting Angels because they were on the ball when I left messages. They immediately called back and answered all my questions adequately. In a good way, I didn't feel that I had to track people down. They provided my mom with an in home care provider. We had one caregiver. She was attentive, kind and listened well to instructions and requests. The billing and scheduling of caregiver went fine too. It was very easy to work with the company. I was stressed out because it was a difficult time and they made it very easy and straightforward to work with them."
