THROUGH your pages the family of Freda Riste would like to express our extreme grateful thanks to the Harrier Grange Nursing Home and Clifford House Nursing Home for the kindness they have shown with the passing of Freda’s partner, Ron.

Clifford House, the nursing home Ron was a resident, made Freda very welcome when visiting, and provided her with every possible element of care she could wish for, even providing her a bed in his room so they could spend their last moments together.

Harrier Grange made their driver and in-house car available to her, and showed her immense kindness and compassion.

With so much competition between Andover nursing homes it is reassuring to know that in times of need, the patient’ s need is of paramount importance.

Thanks to all concerned.
