BASEBALL IN HEAVEN
Tom was at the hospital visiting with his best friend Larry who was dying.
Tom asked, "If there is baseball in heaven will you come back and tell me?"
Larry nodded "yes" just as he passed away.
That night while Tom was sleeping, he heard Larry's voice in a dream.
"Tom..."
"Larry! What is it?!" asked Tom.
"I have good news and bad news from heaven."
"What's the good news?"
"There is baseball in heaven after all, but the bad news is you're pitching on Tuesday."

We're Delighted to Hear from Families About Our Exceptional Care!
A Satisfied Client's Review:
"My mother is now 86-years-old with many back problems. After my mother's stay in a rehabilitation center for 2 months, we needed someone to be able to help us out with mom's care. Visiting Angels has been just that! Each Angel that we've had for Mom has been nothing but kind, caring, and pleasant. There is one Visiting Angel who has been with Mom 2 days a week now for months; her name is Sue. Sue is one of the gentlest, kindest, most caring people anyone could have asked for. Sue has also become our family's good friend. She is the best!"
--Susan, Bordentown, NJ

certified home health professionals
, are ready to provide compassionate and dependable assistance with the activities of everyday living to seniors, the disabled, those recovering from surgery and to those who are simply frail. Our

Visiting Angels
' in-home care helps make it possible for seniors and other adults to continue to live at home and maintain the independence of their daily routines and familiar surroundings, safely. We truly understand how challenging and alien the entire home care selection process can be...and we are experienced in working with families; with loved ones "resistant" to receiving care; and with third-parties payors (such as insurance companies and the US Dept. of Veterans Affairs) to help insure that the best interests of the family and their loved ones are met.
Visiting Angels' services
help families spend more mutually-rewarding and meaningful time with their loved ones and also helps provide comfort and peace of mind to those who face the challenge of long-distance caregiving.
