Michael Gibson
Director
Michael Gibson is the Owner and Director of the local Griswold Home Care Mesquite-Dallas-Waxahachie office in Texas. During a successful 25 year career in senior management roles for a major big box retailer and a leader in the restaurant industry, Michael would often imagine opening his own business. He made the conscious decision to leave the corporate world and fully research where he could go from there.
During the last few years Michael and his wife Lori had been dealing with the declining health of a loved one. Faced with unfamiliar options in the area of home care versus assisted facility living, they experienced first-hand the difference in a person’s attitude and demeanor when able to remain in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of his/her own home.
After finding Griswold Home Care and already knowing the impact this type of care can make to those in need, Michael knew this was where he belonged. The mission and culture of the 30 year company is a perfect fit. Michael’s many years of customer relations makes him excited to refer caregivers to provide the superior level of care and support the Griswold name is known for.
Michael would love the opportunity to talk to you in more detail about your service needs and desires for personal care, homemaking and companionship services as well as incidental transportation/accompaniment.
Michael and Lori have been married for 26 years, have a son, and currently reside in the Mesquite community. Michael and Lori are both natives of Mesquite, Texas. Lori has served on a non-profit board in the community for over 3 years and our family is involved in several volunteer organizations including the Portable Pantry Program they have established in the Mesquite area.

We’re in This Together

We are active in the neighborhood, so you’ll see us around town at events, participating in associations and meetings, and supporting local organizations inside and outside the care industry. We firmly believe in our ability to create a happier and healthier place to live through the connections we make with the people in our community.
Jean’s Story
In 1982, Dr. Jean Griswold founded our company at her dining room table in a small suburb of Philadelphia. She found out that an elderly woman in her community had died of complications because she had no support system for care. Jean felt this was an easily preventable tragedy and was driven to find a solution by pairing Caregivers with those who could not thrive in their homes alone. She was a true visionary, establishing one of the first and most successful non-medical home care organizations in the country, despite being wheelchair-bound due to Multiple Sclerosis. Over 40 years later, her legacy lives on nationwide.
Scholarship
Where would we be without Caregivers? Their selflessness is astounding, yet they are often overlooked and underappreciated. The Jean Griswold Foundation is dedicated to supporting Caregivers, the backbone of the care industry. We provide educational scholarships so Care Professionals can further their training, enhance their skills, elevate their careers, and better assist the people they serve.
