Holiday Time PDF Print E-mail

The holidays are fast approaching and there are many in Louisa who will not have friends and family with which to share this special time of year. Why not adopt a grandparent. There are 90 apartments at Epworth Manor filled with elderly folks, many of which have no one to visit or spend any time with them. I know that my grandmother and great grandmother were tremendous blessings to me while growing up and you will find that an older person can truly enrich your life. Give it a try, you'll be glad you did.

For information call: Towana Hollins at 540-967-1696.
