The German Centre was honored to be represented by our Area Director of Community Relations, Jillian Hemeon, as a guest speaker at the Dedham Retired Men’s Club on Friday, October 10.

Jillian first met Program Coordinator Chuck Brunner at the Dedham Council on Aging Health Fair and was later invited to share more about the care services offered at The German Centre campus, as well as highlights from our sister communities and programs across Legacy Lifecare.

The Dedham Retired Men’s Club is a social organization of retired men from Dedham and 19 surrounding towns—many of whom are proud veterans of World War II, the Korean War, the Cold War, and Vietnam. Meetings are held at the beautiful Endicott Estate, where members gather each week to enjoy camaraderie, coffee, and engaging presentations.

We are so grateful for the warm welcome and the chance to connect with such an inspiring group of community members! 🇺🇸

Staff Spotlight: James (Jimmy) Montville

We’re excited to celebrate Jimmy Montville, who truly is the glue that keeps the German Centre running smoothly! Jimmy puts his heart into everything he does and it shows.

He’s often here before the rest of us are even awake, and his dedication extends far beyond regular hours coming in on weekends, days off, and even during vacation.

With over 18 years of service, Jimmy’s master-level craftsmanship shines through in so many ways: gardening, carpentry, painting, repairs, and just about anything that needs fixing. His creativity even extends to sewing—his custom hockey jerseys are legendary!

Thank you, Jimmy, for your tireless dedication, incredible talent, and the pride you take in making the German Centre a great place to live and work.

It’s DAF Day — and ours too!

Today celebrates giving through Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) — and since our own Deutsches Altenheim Foundation (DAF) shares the same acronym, we couldn’t resist joining in!

If you have a DAF, it’s the perfect day to recommend a gift to support the love, comfort, and connection every senior at German Centre deserves.

It’s quick and easy:

1. Log in to your DAF account (Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, etc.)

2. Recommend a grant to Deutsches Altenheim Foundation (Tax ID: 04-3294940)

Every gift helps us continue compassionate, life-enhancing care for seniors.
