My mother began using elder services a few months ago. The staff were extremely helpful getting the process started and taking care of an immediate need that we had for my mother. The services she receives has been top-notch and we know the people who work there care very much about their clients Our family receives great peace of mind knowing Mother has a new extended family with elder services.

"Meals on Wheels helps us a great deal. My husband is immobile and bedridden, and having his afternoon meals delivered is a huge help. Being his 24-hr a day caregiver would be more difficult without this wonderful service. Thank you, Pat Reynolds "

"I wish to thank all the supporters of M.O.W. This has been a healthy, happy occurence in my life, as I am older and unable to participate in much of my housekeeping & personal care at this time. You sure make my life easier and healthier. The food is always good and very healthy. My doctor is very happy about my blood count and weight. Prior to MOW it was all wrong -- too much junk food. Meals on Wheels has relieved me from many of my past concerns. I am a healthy 84 year old. Thanks to our special people at M.O.W. who give of their time and energy for all of us. Thank you, Mary L. Shelley "

I really don't know what I would have done without the help I've received from Anne and Elder Services of Okaloosa County. For me the meals on wheels program was a life saver and has put my mind at ease that I'll have food.
