Bethany Home and Mary of the Angels, My wife, her mother, and I visited Bethany home about 6 years ago when her mother was considering an assisted living home. Although she ultimately chose not you go there, from all I could tell, it is a first class place. They have a considerable number of people that are able to be out and about, some even with theri own automobiles. For others, they have regularly scheduled bus excursions, etc. As far as Mary of the Angels, I am not sure what it is now. Years ago, it was a boarding house for wome that was run by the Nuns. Many single girls stayed there. My wife even stayed ther for awhile when she was single and working in Dubuque. ----- Original Message ----- From: Nancy L.
