🎬 Special Event Highlight!
Last week, our residents enjoyed a memorable visit from filmmaker Andrew Lilley, who shared his inspiring film, "I'll Knock a Homer for You." It was a wonderful experience filled with storytelling, connection, and reflection. Thank you, Andrew, for bringing your work to our community!
"During the 1926 World Series, Babe Ruth promised an ailing boy from New Jersey named Johnny Sylvester that he’d knock a homer for him. In Game 4, that promise became a legend. Johnny Sylvester is my great-uncle, and I was able to tell this story from a unique perspective because it is part of my family history."- Andrew Lily.

We extend our gratitude to all family members and staff who attended and supported our Alzheimer's bingo activity. We successfully raised over $600 for the Alzheimer's foundation. It was a truly wonderful afternoon for a worthy cause.
