Words from Guests December 6, 2018

“Thank you Fisher House for “better” lodging.  You are definitely a “home away from home” and much more.  Our stay with you for the past two days has been nothing less than awesome.  The services….from your friendly and welcoming staff (specifically John and Marc) to the amenities offered…is a 5-star rating.  Also, having the hospital right across the street is a plus.  We couldn’t ask for anything more as we wouldn’t want it any other way, especially during a stressful time.  Thanks again for your hospitality.”  It was signed with a huge smiley face.  I am typing with goosebumps…..the impact comfort lodging makes during a medical event, coupled with caring staff…..wow……
