Thanks to our second shift staff that brightened the residents’ Valentine’s day! They all got together and made them. This is a great example of teamwork! Also the following couples were treated to a Valentine’s meal served in the chapel. Bev and Bill, Bev & Harvey, Leona & Larry, Barb & Dr. Dunlay, Wilma and Burnell, Jane and Dean, and Evelyn and Clarence. They were served a special meal with flameless candles, lights dimmed and music playing. Thanks to Shannon Crawford and her daughter and our dietary department for making this possible.
