I passed these benches each day I went to visit my friend, Myrl, on her last days on earth. . . these two were in the corner before the hallway to her room. The next one was actually in the entrance as I came through the front door and started down the hall. . . the last two photos show the garden area outside in which visitors could stroll while visiting their loved ones on the last days. . .
I see that the second one has something written on its back. maybe a gift bench, or a memory bench?..Such a place offers a lot of benches, and it's a good thing to have a private little place to share talks with those you are visiting..
ReplyDeleteThe benches are very beautiful.I am sorry to hear what the reason was to see these benches. I hope your friend didn't suffer too much. I wish you strength to deal with the loss of your friend.
ReplyDeleteYou have an impressive collection, even without adding to it!
ReplyDeleteSad memory of the benches, it reminds me the benches in my memory too, for some reasons, I just dare not to look at the benches in the hospitals...
