“When our father, Valford Albert Kelly, entered Providence Place for the final chapter of his life, we expected professional care. What we did not expect was to witness one of the most beautiful examples of humanity we have ever experienced. Over the last six days of his life, our father was surrounded by a community of people who treated him not as a patient, but as a person whose life mattered.…”
