That is so nice Humble Janitor. Our elderly in our modern culture are shoved into institutions and forgotten about....it is so sad. The young people are too busy with their work and lifestyle to visit their elderly parents in these places. The loneliness is very hard on them, & quite often they give up and die sooner than they would, if they were able to live at home.
Sorry....don't mean to take this tread off track
