💌 WC History Lecture Series: Love Letters of the Founding Fathers & Mothers 💌

Our very own residents, Dr. Dorothy Bundy Potter and Dr. Clif Potter, took us on a fascinating journey through the private, heartfelt letters of America’s founders. From passion to devotion, these letters reveal a side of history we rarely see—showing that even the men and women who shaped our nation felt love and longing just like us. ❤️

As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, it was a wonderful reminder that history isn’t just names in marble—it’s full of real people with real emotions. ❤️

Love was in the air at Westminster Canterbury during our recent Valentine Workshop! 💌❤️

We were delighted to have our very own resident, Mary Kathryn McIntosh, lead this charming and creative afternoon. She began with a fascinating talk on antique Valentine history before guiding fellow residents in crafting their own beautiful cards.

With intricate German die-cut scraps, delicate lace doilies, and plenty of inspiration, creativity was on full display! ✂️✨ Each participant created their very own heartfelt Valentine — a truly one-of-a-kind keepsake.

A special thank you to Mary Kathryn for sharing her talents and passion with our community. It was a sweet celebration in every way! 💕
