    One other item---Kathy Greenwood and Katrina Boylan are starting up an adult day (Divine Destiny) care in Smithfield for your love ones. Anyone that is 18 yrs and older can go on a daily bases and have professional skilled nurses and people to look after your love ones, while you are at work. It will be opening soon.
