WE would like to thank the manager and staff of Ridgewell House care home, in Holland-on-Sea, for their exemplary care, attention and affection for our father Edward Pettitt during his short time with them.

All too often, residential homes receive bad press, but this home has the most wonderful atmosphere and the staff have nothing but compassion for the people in their care.

The level of thought that goes into their every action is clearly apparent and these are people who are dedicated to their work to ensure those being cared for receive the highest standard of attention.

We will never forget what they did for dad, and for us his family which was above and beyond anything we expected. Therefore, we would like to express publicly our sincere thanks for what they did at a very difficult time.
