Mary Littler
My friend was a resident at Minnie Lee’s for the past four months. He received outstanding care from the caregivers, Elizabeth and Juanita. I could not ask for more caring people to take care of my friend. They always had a smile on their faces and talk so friendly to him. Whenever I asked them to do something they did it immediately. I want to thank them and the other caregivers and Minnie Lee for all they did for my friend.
