I had an aunt who lived as a patient at Pilgrim. Every other Sunday after
church, my parents would make the drive out to PSH so my mother could visit her aunt Nancy. She was on the 5th floor of a building and my father
would drop my mother off because children were not permitted as
visitors. Occasionally, Aunt Nancy would wave to us but that's as close as my sister and I ever got to her.We were never told why she was there
but we were told that her sister had her "comitted" for some reason.
Aunt Nancy died there in 1965 and is buried somewhere on the grounds.
