Center news
view from the hill
Bv Doris Brosnan
Residents and staff of Willow Creek Terrace view
the departure o f Suzanne Jepsen from the Board of
Directors as a sad occasion for them, but they realize her
need for time to commit to other needs. So, with mixed
emotions, they hosted the “Farewell and Thank You”
reception for her at the Terrace on April 27. Approximately
50 area residents joined them in honoring Suzanne.
The Terrace community is pleased to have long­
time Willow Valley resident Ed Dick join them as a neighbor.
If Ed is interested in gardening, he will appreciate the new
sidewalk that more easily enables residents with this
avocation to get their hands in the dirt. That pleasure may
or may not have served the residents well when they
celebrated Earth Day on April 22 by planting flowers and
then eating the inventive staffs theme-appropriate “dirty
dessert with worms.”
Busy inside or outside, the residents seem always
to enjoy taking time for music. In April, several residents
enjoyed the weekly practices of the Sentimentalists- they
are always invited to join the women’s singing group- and
they welcomed the Old Time Fiddlers back on May 7.
May continues to be a full month for Terrace
residents. On May 4, Pastor Ruth Swanson presented her
humorous look at aging, “Aging: You Can’t Live Without
It.” Two residents attended the Wranglers Play Day last
Sunday. On Friday of this week, “Crafty Ladies” will come
to share a flower craft for all the ladies and a flower for the
gentlemen in memory of their mothers and the mothers of
their children. On Saturday, the 13'\ the Ladies of the
Nazarene Church will host their annual Mothers Day Tea.
And presently, the residents and staff are planning a trip to
the Morrow County Museum for May 25. Residents enjoy
discussing these events with visitors, as well as the topics-
of-the-day in our local and regional media.
One topic-of-the-day at the Terrace on April 20 was
the birthday of Juanita Martin, a busy woman who had to
be pinned down on the run as to her preferred birthday-
cake flavor. And May will be drawing to a close with another
special lady’s special day. Irene Swanson will share her
birthday with neighbors, friends and family on May 24.
As always, the Terrace community welcomes
visitors to come by and enjoy the view from the hill with
them.
The May 17 menu
for the senior center noon
meal is meat loaf, mashed
potatoes with brown gravy,
cole slaw , peaches and
brownies. Volunteers who
will host the meal are from
St. Patrick’s Catholic parish.
Serving begins at 11:30 a.m.,
after opening flag salute and
table blessing.
