It’s the lucky people who are given admittance to The Gables Nursing Home In Marysville Ohio which is owned by the Marysville hospital. My granddaughter Jodi Wedding who has multiple sclerosis is one of the lucky people as is my niece Betty Eastman Rae and my niece Virginia Rockhold Davis.
This story is about Virginia, daughter of my brother Carl Rockhold and his wife Gladys Sandusky Rockhold. Virginia’s younger sister Janice lives at St Arbors in North Lewisburg Ohio where she has her own apartment and her sister Irene sadly is no longer with us. Their mother Gladys died soon after Baby Janice was born.
Their father married Leslie Bowen giving his little girls a new mother.
My brother Carl Rockhold holding baby Janice, Leslie Rockhold the girls new mother and in front is Virginia and Irene. My three little nieces.

Now back to the drawing board, my niece Virginia is one of the lucky people accepted by this very special Nursing Home with really delicious meals, clean day and clean night clothes and clean bedding every day, many activities as I will show you from their bulletin.

And now for a close up of Virginia with her three adorable granbabies Aubrey, Brooke and Shelby

Above seated in a wheel chair Virginia’s loving husband Lowell Davis who two years ago fell and broke his neck. When it was repaired his head became stationary. He can no longer move his head. He lives alone in the family home with their children living near by who do much for him. Behind him standing are their four children left Marcie, Marge, Mike and Butch.
Above Lowell Davis riding in combine with son Carl William Davis (Butch), you can see they are each enjoying this. Since this picture was taken October 2016 I would guess they are combining soy beans.
So……you can see how the family of my niece Virginia Davis manages to go on with Virginia being at Gables Nursing Home where they know she is being taken care of in a wonderful home like fashion.
With the many amenities that I have shown you here there are more I haven’t mentioned perhaps you can understand why I call The Gables Nursing Home A HOME AWAY FROM HOME.
