IT'S so sad that a lovely place like the Acomb Gables is closing. My mother Elsie Kay has been living happily there for just over a year and is now worrying about moving and having to make new friends.
It's awful for the nursing staff as well. They have put their hearts and souls into making the residents happy, and in a way they have made the residents an extension of their own families.
The caf was a nice place to take my mum and in the wheelchair to the shops in Acomb. No other home has these facilities.
I know it doesn't matter what anyone says, the home will close anyway, but I feel better for having my say.
Mrs Anne Shepherd,
Kexby Avenue, York.
