What people are saying about LSC

LSC follows the mandate of Jesus to serve all of those people who are unable to care for themselves.

-Former LSC Board Chair Jerry Bramley

I thought that the beautiful waterfront location was the biggest attraction to Trinity Landing, but have come to realize it’s really the people, the staff, and my future neighbors. Sharing a beautiful community with like-minded interesting folks sounds terrific! We’re just starting to build and already have a book club!

-Helen Monk

I seriously cannot thank Trinity Place enough for letting me be part of the family. This was so awesome for the residents to be able to see their families during this pandemic. I enjoyed standing by them and seeing their faces. It was so priceless! I love all my staff and residents and wouldn’t trade them for any other place! 

-Ashlyn Coone about Trinity Place’s Care-avan parade for friends and family 

Thank you for being the extended family for Larry all these years. Many of you gave Larry the extra-special attention that is much appreciated. Thank you for all the love, thoughts, and prayers. God Bless. 

-Doris Linville, Larry’s mother, wrote this to Trinity Glen staff after he passed away 

Thank you so much for doing such an amazing job of getting this all set up for us. It was perfect, it was fun, and it helped relieve a lot of worry and anxiety about our loved ones inside. It was a blessing for all involved. 

-Mervin and Julie Brooks in an email about Trinity Glen’s Share the Love family parade

LSC follows the mandate of Jesus to serve all of those people who are unable to care for themselves.

-Former LSC Board Chair Jerry Bramley

The family cannot express the appreciation for all the caregivers that supported Wade as he fought the effect’s of Parkinson’s. The caregivers at Trinity Elms, his home since January 2020, willingly stepped up to be his family when the facility and state were shut down for COVID19 and we are truly indebted to you.

-The family of Jesse Wade White, Sr. in his obituary from the Winston Salem Journal

Thank you for your fine care of our Dad. We feel blessed that you loved him as did we. Blessings on you as you continue your mission of caring for our elders

-The Hart Children

They treated my mom as if she were their own, always having her best interest at heart. We are appreciative of their kindness and compassion. We are truly grateful for Trinity Elms

-Andrea Stanfield Nifong

Thank you! It is because of you, a great staff, that I am on my way to a complete healing. 

-Juanita

I would like to say thanks to all of you, who took the time out of your days and stuffed those beautiful pillows that Barbara Devin made for the homeless vets. You all are truly a blessing from God! 

-Joan Hooker, The Rock Church

I truly appreciate the help, love, understanding and treatment that not only my mother received but the way I was being checked on, hugged, offered meals, kept informed of the progress of my mother, answers to any questions I asked, and prayers. I hope everyone knows that Trinity Glen has a wonderful team that makes such times like these more bearable.

-Annette Nichols, Rosa Thompson’s Stepdaughter

“Annette spent the last 4 years being lovingly cared for by the wonderful staff at Trinity Place who treated her as if she was their own mother. When we couldn’t be there, these men and women were the angels that gave her unconditional love and we are so grateful for them.”

-Family of Annette Fesperman of Albemarle 

Trinity View’s staff is caring, hospitable, available, loving, protective, and supportive. Living here is the best decision I’ve ever made. I feel loved and I praise God that Trinity View was available for me!

-Resident Linda Thompson
