“My Mom has told me time and time again that if she cannot stay at home, The Cottage is the best place to live! The employees are so good to her. For me, I do not have to worry about mom because I know she is being checked on and all of her needs are met. The Cottage has been such a relief to my family.” - Sherry Colgazier
