🥁 Drumroll, please… 🥁
We are incredibly proud and honored to recognize Cheryl Dunn Spade as our….
BEEHIVE EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR – 2025!!! 🥳
Cheryl is the Community Outreach Director for
BeeHive Homes of Brandenburg, Lyndon, and Smyrna’s.
Cheryl’s journey with BeeHive Homes is rooted in a lifelong passion for service, leadership, and heart-centered care. Born and raised in Muncie, Indiana, and a Louisville resident since 1987, Cheryl brings a strong educational foundation in healthcare administration, along with extensive experience in property management and real estate—a powerful combination that benefits our communities every day.
Her passion for senior care began when a close friend asked for her help in increasing occupancy at a skilled nursing and assisted living community. Through Cheryl’s dedication, relationship-building, and strategic outreach, the community’s census rose to an impressive 98%, igniting a lifelong commitment to assisted living.
Cheryl’s compassion for hands-on care also led her to work as a CNA at a respected rehabilitation facility, where she served as a private caregiver for a very prominent and well-respected family. That experience helped shape her deep understanding of dignity, trust, and personalized care—values she continues to bring to BeeHive Homes families today.
Her professional experience extends beyond Kentucky as well. While working in Naples, Florida, Cheryl collaborated with a prestigious property management board, strengthening her skills in homeowner and community relations—experience that translates seamlessly into her work supporting residents and families across our BeeHive Homes.
Outside of work, Cheryl treasures time with her two sons, daughter-in-law, three grandchildren, and her dog. Her warmth, professionalism, and unwavering commitment make a lasting impact on everyone she encounters.
Cheryl, your leadership, compassion, and dedication truly embody the heart of BeeHive Homes. Thank you for all you do and for the difference you make every single day.
Please join us in celebrating Cheryl Spade — Employee of the Year 2025!!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
