Christmas lights bring a glimmer & joy to our campus each year at this time, thanks to the gra-cious donation from Jack Burkett. He does this in fond memory of his mother and past resident Martha Burkett and her love of Christmas Lights. Thank you Jack for letting Manor Park be part of this fond memory.

Memories of Mom

shared by Jack Burkett Martha Burkett, Christmas 2004 in the kitchen of her home at 202 Abell Hanger Circle. If there were anything more than Christmas lights that she enjoyed more it was cooking for her family and friends. I can remember at home as a child she would make a home-made bread once a week and how delicious it was. And then, later in life when dad was chairman of Group 4 of the Ohio Bankers Association she would entertain the group’s bankers and their wives in their large home.

Do you have a prayer request? If you would like to be added to the prayer list, place your request in one of the boxes located around the campus. Requests are collected and distributed to the Manor Park prayer group.

Chaplains Chat...

Our very own, ever present Chaplain is out on Medical Leave until the end of Nov.

first of Dec. He is recovering from gallbladder surgery and is healing well. Bill appreciates

all the prayers and kind words of healing sent his way. This circumstance reminds me how

fortunate Manor Park residents and staff are to have someone who is there when wanted, when needed, even absently in

thought & prayer. We look forward to his return.

Have a peaceful Christmas Season

filled with love.

If I can help you in any way, as Chaplain, please call me (699-3404), leave a note on or under my office door or send me a message by

email to [email protected]

Your home will be filled with amazing smells all day long.

Happy Holidays everybody!

Cards of Kindness challenge is still going on until the end of the year! So if you are feeling the holiday spirit,

come on by the Wellness Center to make a few cards or grab a card or two for yourself and some loved ones!

DID YOU KNOW? It’s recommended by the American Heart Association to exercise at least 150 minutes per

week! Good to keep in mind as there are more opportunities to indulge in holiday cookies and Christmas

goodies after Thanksgiving has passed… We sometimes forget it’s important to stay healthy even during this

time of year. Call us at (432)699-3411 or pass by the Wellness Center to get started with an exercise routine.

A good time to start off a great upcoming year!

REMINDERS: There will be NO CLASSES DECEMBER 9TH THROUGH 13TH & 24TH AND 25TH. NO BALANCE

QUILTING BEE We are a group of ladies who enjoy quilting and sewing together. Come by and check out what we are working on. Sometimes it is a quilt - but we are also “crafters” - so no telling what we might be working on. We have an ongoing project of making a gift for all the new residents who move in to our community. For now - we are making microwave bowl co-zies. You do not have to bring a machine to sew - we can put you to work. And…. Beginners are welcome. We can help you choose a project and guide you to make it. We love to share our love of quilting and sewing!

Come join us! For the whole day - or part of the day!:

Charitable Gifts from Your IRA

Did you know that a person over age 70½ can make charitable gifts directly from their IRA of up to $100,000 per year?

You may contribute funds this way if: You are 70 ½ or older The gift is $100,000 or less (your spouse also can also give

$100,000 from his or her own IRA if he/she is age 70½ or older) You make the gift on or before December 31st each year. You transfer funds directly to the charity from a traditional IRA

or Roth IRA You transfer the gift outright to one or more public charities (This excludes gifts made to charitable trusts, donor advised funds and supporting organizations.) It is simple to do. Just call your IRA ad-ministrator to make the transfer.

We encourage you to contact your tax professional and your IRA administrator if you are considering a gift to Manor Park under this tax law.

For more information, contact Lucy Woodside, Director of Development at Manor Park (432) 699-3424.
