hi! My name is Dana Larson. My husband and I live in Beckville, Tx. We moved here 9 years ago for my husband's work in Marshall, Tx nearby. I concluded my teaching career of 25 years here as well. I worked with special needs children and young adults. Since I retired last year my mother has moved in with us so she would have the care that she needs. I am well versed on elderly care, including meal prep, dressing and grooming, housekeeping, exercise, errand running, and the companionship that is desired by so many, whether it be playing cards or dominoes, reading a book, going for a walk on a beautiful day, going to see a movie, or just listening to their personal stories that bring joy to their day. I must say that I think it is a privilege to be there for our elderly, and hopefully be the kind of person that they would look forward to seeing, and spending their valuable time with.
