Della Liggett moved to new nursing facility


Della May (Reneker) Liggett has been moved to another nursing home due to her increased wandering and behabiors related to Alzheimer's. The new facility has a locked Alzheimer's ward that offers a much more stable environment for her. This also put her much closer to her sister, Gloria Shephard, who does much to help with Della.

See the facility at www.greenmeadowscarecenter.com
The address is:
7770 Columbus Rd.
Louisville, OH 44641
Tel. 330-875-1456

Her son, Sheldon Scott, writes that he does not go to see her often "as she only sees me as a big guy who she doesn't know and is at times shy or fearful around me."

Here's an update from Sheldon who has moved back to Ohio:

Steve and I moved back to Ohio in May of 2007. I am currently working at Mercy Medical Center in Canton in the CVSICU (open heart unit.}. While I liked the Travel RN opportunities, it is nice to have a place to call home.. In July of 2008 we bought a house in the Portage Lakes area. It sits on a corner lot and has one acre of land with it. The neighborhood is wonderful and filled with friendly folk. My new address is 95 W. Caston Rd., Akron, OH 44319."

His new email address is scott.liggett@yahoo.com. (There is a perod between scott and liggett.)

Della, , who celebrated her 80h birthday on May 22, 2008, was married on October 22, 1967 to William Fenton Liggett who died June 19, 1997.
