Happiest grandparents day to our amazing residents here at Bickford of Raytown ❤️❤️❤️
Grandparents day here at Bickford of Raytown, and must say our hearts are so full today with all the love they felt. I asked all the families to send out a few pictures of their loved ones with their grandchildren and to make it a surprise for them. So this morning I told all the residents to decorate their own picture frame and when they’re done I’ll put a surprise in it little did they know I had a picture of them and their grandchildren or someone that they love. All their faces were lit up with so much joy and I loved how they could go back and tell me a memory they had about the pictures it was a great feeling for the staff and the residence today. Thank you to all the families that sent me a picture for their loved one
