What a wonderful service you all provide and it meant so much to us. After Mom’s last accident when she decided to give up driving, it was a relief to her to find a reliable, compassionate and free service. And what a relief to me as well since I live out of town and can’t always be there to drive her. You are a blessing to the community. God bless you and keep up the good work.” – daughter of a client

Thanks so much to Robyn and her charming son for helping me over the two-day doctor’s care for my cataract surgery. I am inspired. I am so appreciative of what the Shepherd’s Center has done for me.” – former client
