Kelly Sutherland
Poem by Mary Grant

K is for kindness and keeping the payroll straight,
E is for being the exceptional person that you are,
L is for being a loving mother and daughter,
L is for listening to all our questions about payroll, insurance, and anything else we need to know,
Y is just for being you.

Elwood Osborn
Poem by Mary Grant

E is for ever-loving and ever-caring, easy to get along with and always being extra nice,
L is for being large and in charge; from farming to transporting the residents to Dr.'s appointments and working in the front office; and for your laughter which you're always full of,
W is for willing to what is asked of him,
O is for original and one of a kind,
O is for offering a helping hand,
D is for his devotion to Columbus Colony and great husband and father.

These are only a few of the great qualities of someone so dear to our hearts. We love you Elwood, Happy Birthday.
