We recently celebrated Lowell and Marilyn Kuhn’s 73rd Wedding Anniversary! 💕

Jill Tyler put on a lovely music program and even sang “Happy Anniversary” to the happy couple. We enjoyed cake, balloons, flowers, and so many heartfelt cards to honor this special milestone.

It was a wonderful celebration, and we all had such a great time celebrating 73 incredible years of love! ❤️

💜 Purple Day at The Waters of Wakarusa 💜

Yesterday we celebrated a day dedicated to raising epilepsy awareness, supporting those living with the condition, and reducing stigma.

We dressed for the occasion and made some homemade grape purple JELL-O to eat!

Yesterday, Patty Piechocki from Northern Indiana Real Services joined us for an informative Dementia and Alzheimer’s training. We were so glad to welcome members of our community, along with our residents and staff, for this important session.

Patty shared valuable insights, and there were many thoughtful questions that led to meaningful discussions. It was a great opportunity for everyone to learn more about such an important topic.

Thank you, Patty, for taking the time to educate and support our community! 💜

Last week, we proudly celebrated Long-Term Care Administrators Week, and we’d like to extend a big thank you to our incredible Administrator, David Henke! 💙

David was born at Elkhart General Hospital — the very same place where he later worked as a Registered Respiratory Therapist and Practitioner. He went on to earn his Master’s degree in Business Administration and Finance from Indiana Wesleyan University and served as a financial analyst at Healthwin Hospital, where he completed his training and licensure as a Health Facility Administrator in Indiana. He also holds a Licensed Nursing Home Administrator certification in the state of Michigan.

Throughout his career, David has dedicated himself to serving several nursing facilities across Indiana, building strong care teams and improving outcomes for residents. He joined The Waters of Wakarusa one year ago and shared that the small-town feel and genuine, heartfelt care shown by the team is what drew him here.

In addition to his work in healthcare, David has proudly served as an Elkhart City Councilman for the past 22 years.

David has been married for 38 years to his wife, Kim — an RN, MSN, MPH, CCRN, and Clinical Specialist at Elkhart General — where the two first met. Together, they have two children: Zachary, a public works engineer in Elkhart, and Alexandria, a lawyer for the New York Civil Court System. They also have one very spoiled grandchild, Kingston!

In their free time, David and Kim enjoy boating, traveling, and making a difference in their community. They reside in Elkhart, Indiana.

Thank you, David, for your leadership, dedication, and the positive impact you make every day! 💙
