To the editor:
The YMCA of Hightstown and East Windsor will be closing its doors for good on June 29. It will be the last day of day care and preschool for my grandchildren, Jack and Eugenia Sanchez.
I want to thank all of the wonderful teachers, staff and caregivers for taking such good care of my family over the past year. My daughter and son-in-law, Marjorie and Dan, moved in with us a year ago when they started new jobs south of Cherry Hill. Thinking it would only be for a few months, my daughter asked me to look in to area day care facilities for her. The first place that came to mind was the Hightstown YMCA. It was the best choice and we never really considered anywhere else.
Months turned in to a year and now Jack is finishing pre-school and Eugenia, just two-years-old, has enjoyed the loving day care environment. They both will soon move on to their new home in Cherry Hill but will never forget their year at the Hightstown – East Windsor YMCA!
My family feels so fortunate that we were able to take advantage of this valuable resource that has been in our community for years. We will miss all of the smiling happy faces who greeted us so warmly every day and sent Jack and Eugenia home so well educated and cared for, so happy and content.
We wish all of the staff good luck in their future endeavors and will gladly provide glowing references for future employment!
