Monday, November 30, 2009

Todd, Sheryl, Dennis, Tara, Trinity, Grace, Jovie and myself moved Dad yesterday to a new Retirement Home called Olympus Ranch. Dad had cold feet the week prior to the move, but we spoke to him on Sunday at our Thanksgiving feast and rerouted his thinking. We worked hard all day to pack, move, unpack and get him all settled in his new place. His biggest request was he needs to have at least one phone call a day, preferably in the morning, to make sure he is still alive. So, starting this afternoon his new phone number will be 801-281-6120. Also, his cell phone does work, we checked it out. His address is: 971 East 5600 South #204 Murray, Utah 84123
My hope is he will make lots of good friends, eat healthier and find some peace in his life. I plan to visit him again today. I think during these first few months, we should visit him more often until he feels completely comfortable there. Meals are at 8:30 am, 12:30 pm, 5:30 pm and snacks all day long. If we visit during those times, we can eat with him for free.

  3. "He got a new phone"---is it mean he has room number, like his new home number? His cellphone does work. it is still included in our family plan.

  4. I called Grant and Parley last night and gave them Harold's new information. I remember when he moved from West Jordan we got a phone call from one of them because Harold hadn't answered the phone for several weeks (the old number didn't get canceled for several months so there was no forwarding number).
