A spokesperson with Liberty Place said this experience brought back memories for 88-year-old Mary Lou Ullrich, as she grew up on a farm where animals were a big part of her life.
“So many of our elders were raised on farms and many are lifelong animal lovers,” said Amy Snow, life engagement director for Liberty Place. “The gentle cows brought comfort, joy and a whole lot of smiles to our residents. Evidence shows that animals do wonders for those with cognitive, impairment, and our seniors enjoy spending time with all animals.”
