Please allow me to express my deep appreciation and thanks to the following businesses because they go the extra mile in helping me care for my elderly father.

Vanty of Bow Lake Barber Shop, who keeps Dad looking nice. The girls at Vui Ve Nails for his foot care with a fabulous spa pedicure that is first class and includes hot towels that you only find in upscale salons. John of Aruba-J for his monthly massage at the Des Moines Senior Center. Albertson's and Fred Meyer stores in Burien because they provide electric carts that enable me to take Dad shopping. And the Metro Access' Door-to-Door subscription drivers who safely transport my father to and from his Elder Adult Day Services in Des Moines so I can have respite.
