I was a private caregiver/sitter while Carol was living at The Pearl Five Forks. She was actually Mr Dalton's (my client) next door neighbor! What a hoot she was!
Always smiling and always concerned for others. Mr Dalton would often hold the door for her, and tell her "how nice you look today". Carol would blush with that childlike grin, thank him and say, "Well, Ron is coming today! "
After the Covid lockdown, I'd often find her lying back on a sofa, legs kicked up and crossed, holding the I-Pad with Ron on the other end, or reading my latest edition of Large Print Reader's Digest.
She was precious during our time together. I'll always remember her willingness to try new things.
Like so many others, however, she just could not understand the quarantine...
