Kyla in Dining heard a loud sound in the auditorium near the end of dinner time and discovered a resident attempting to put out the tables for bingo. She hurried over and cheerfully helped set up all the tables. When thanked the next week, she received the compliment humbly.

I took my first tour of Friends Village at Woodstown yesterday.<br><br>Wendy Patton greeted me and explained about the cottages available at Friends Village.<br><br>I told her about my life history. (I am 85 years old, and had a lot to say.)<br><br>I was impressed that she was a good listener and was interested in what I had to say. She never interrupted me with questions. She never interrupted me at all!<br><br>She showed empathy for my complicated life history!<br>It is rare to meet someone who has so much empathy nowadays!<br><br>Even though I cannot afford to live in Friends Village, I was really glad to meet and talk to Wendy Patton. It left a favorable impression of Friends Village in my mind.<br><br>It was worthwhile to take the tour!<br><br>Sincerely, Margaret Christle Haug

I have been a resident here for about a year and have had many occasions where Kaileen from billing has been exceptionally helpful. Along with her bubbly energetic personality she is always available whenever I need her and very knowledgeable towards any information Ive needed.

My parents passed away several years ago and their estate was entitled you receive some money back. A new company took over, canceled the old contract, and never paid out a dime. Isn't that called STEALING, especially if the money was in an escrow account. If you're considering this place, I'd go somewhere else.
