Katie and Kate
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many fine people. Fortunately, I’m pretty good at remembering situations and faces; I am not as adept with names (but I work at it). For two Angels’ Place residents, Katie and Kate, I find the “which-one-is-which” especially challenging. But, they are always kind to remember my face and my name. They both give me a “shout out” every time they are in the office. Last week Katie and Kate were in an enrichment session with Sister Joann and a couple volunteers. They played games, worked on academics, practiced sign language, and sang songs. When I poked my head into the room, they were both anxious to say hi! (Of course, Kate also wanted to engage in a conversation about her beloved Detroit Red Wings). As the need for isolation loosens, Katie and Kate emitted pure joy in being there and being together. You make this friendship possible and we hope you will experience this same happiness in your day.
