On Wednesday our staff got to enjoy delicous Chick-Fil-A thanks to the family of one of our former residents. We love our Veterans like family and we appreciate it when families love us back! Thank you to all our staff for everything you do and thank you to the family of Mr. Werner for honoring his memory by spoiling our staff!

Congratulations to our October Employee of the Month, Jara Gromer! Jara is a CNA on our special care unit who has a special connection to the Veterans on her hall. The Veterans love her contagious smile and have fun joking around with her. Jara works hard for our Veterans and pitches in wherever she is needed. Thank you Jara for choosing to serve our Veterans!

Our Veterans had a wonderful Halloween this year! We celebrated with a costume party and contest at 2pm that included treats and music and ended the night serving candy to 500+ kids! We had a line out the door for most of the night and over a dozen HUGE storage containers full of candy. Thank you to the Rotary Club of Southeast Missouri Service for helping our Veterans serve our trick or treaters and thank you to our community who showed up and made our Veterans night!
