Lee accurately tells the experience we had with the VA nursing home and their exceptional staff. Words cannot describe these amazing people. We are grateful that Lee chose to chare this story.

As a daughter of another veteran and resident in the V A I agree completely with the Steadman family. My dad is very well taken care of we love the VA House and all of those wonderful people who take care of him. I think they need much more credit and thanks than just their paychecks each month.

My father is also residing at the VA nursing home. My family is equally grateful for the care and love shown him on a daily basis. An extremely hard situation is made somewhat easier knowing that the people who work at the VA are caring and compassionate.
