OVER TIME AND SPACE!



Yesterday TLW’s (The Little Woman) brother Dennis with his lovely wife Angela, was up from Virginia to attend a Seton Hall Reunion, which will be attended by all TLW’s siblings. Dennis is a CEO for a place called Community Residences, Inc. Situated in Chantilly, VA. It houses people with mental and developmental disabilities.I had promised to take him to my agency: AHRC Suffolk in Bohemia, for a tour of our Workshop program, our school, the Saul and Esther Seiff Educare Center, with the best Executive Director in the State of New York, Joe Mammolito.

Joe was extremely gracious as he was proud. Showing Dennis all he could, and in detail!
Then, after a few hours of tours and chatting, off we went to Flowerfield Gardens in Farmingville, to view the greenhouses the agency operates to help fund the agency,

Soon we found ourselves on the Long Island Expressway heading toward Shoreham/Wading River, to view the 96 bed with day habilitation for the physically fragile. But the day was not done yet. Back to Holbrook we went, to visit one of our group homes, newly built in the last few years.

By the end of the visit, we were both tired and, from 7:30 in the morning for breakfast until 2:30 in the afternoon, poor Dennis had to spend it with me, in a car when needed!

I enjoyed the day, we got to talk business, and we got together later as a family, when everyone showed up at the house for a huge pizza party, and a lot of laughs.

Please keep MMB (My Man Bill) and my brother-in-law, John in your prayers, and all those that need our prayers.

Tomorrow: Angela gets her prayers answered, through the power of DelBloggolo!
