Brian Center residents have busy week You know, when we first went from a monthly to a weekly col umn, 1 wondered what to put in it without repetition. It turns out that each week is uniquely different, even with its daily routines and there's so much to talk about, my problem is keeping is short. Faith Assembly of God Church came on Sunday the third. They come every month. Their sermon is always different and we come away with a feeling of being re charged and ready for the week ahead with all of its challenges or grateful for the answer to a prob lem we'd worried about. How blessed we are! Labor Day was a holiday for many at Brian Center, but our nurses were here and our families had time to visit. Edmund Duke, the son of Martha Duke, a resident, gave us his presentation of "A let ter to America. " How heartwarm ing of him to share his special thoughts and talent. Mr. Duke is a former college professor and is presently doing radio broadcasts. Speaking of talent, it's time to pay tribute to Louise Ward and He len Felton, the beauticians who bring their services to us. Seems like when your hair looks nice, no matter what you wear, you look and feel good. That goes for the men too. We re grateful to these la dies. Our residents entertain, and why not! This is their home. Minnie El liott, resident, hosted her church group Tuesday morning and went out to lunch at Hardees, a tradition the ladies have. The change was great for Minnie and coming here was a change for the ladies. Inci dentally, we welcome this type of get-together. The afternoon Bingo on Tuesday is never dull. Sophia Ashburn is al ways the first one there and Ellen Morris helps put out the chips and cards. Most residents have their fa vorite seats and just look at how many men have joined this popular session. It's no wonder what with Ned Thurston's cheerful manner and the prizes! Prizes are donated by folks in the community and much appreciated. Ned's always got some kind of little surprise tucked under his arm, I tell you, it's a packed house. Exercise Class was on Wednes day morning. A mere handful showed up for this usually very popular class, but those who came got the blood flowing and the oxy gen into their lungs. The workout ts 35 minutes long and especially de signed for our very special resi dents. Christmas crafts are in the mak ing byour crafts class. We ll be dis playing these in October. Thursday morning is our News & Views time. We read about the news together and give our views. Marq Gray had a big smile on his face Thursday night when so many residents turned out for his weekly Bible lesson One lady said, tea singly, "we heard you were serving _ ^ = "TRAD!TtOMAL FUNERAL" ASK THE FAMtUES WE VE SERVED ERRY & OMAN FUNERAL HOMES 'I-'.:-.'"' H15 N. Road Street, ice cream." I attended this iesson, because I'd heard the group was studying the book of Ezekiel. To me, this was not an easy iesson. I understood it so much better with this teacher. He got great response from his students. They asked questions, and they answered ques tions, I think that's why they love these lessons. They actively partic ipate. I smiied as I came away from there. The presentation was good and we ali learned something. On Friday, we piayed table games in the morning. Naomi Banks won two times at dominos, James Smith one time and Alice Combs one time. That afternoon, we had manicures. I think we enjoy socializing as must as getting pre tty. These are some of our routine programs and I guarantee you'll hear something just a little bit dif ferent about them each week, but how about all the other things that went on? We had such a ferment of activity. Lou and George Moore, daughter and son-in-law of Arnold and Carrie Brown, knew how much their Ar nold loved farming how he missed having a garden. One day they brought his tiller out here and made his day. Arnold, 93, tilled up a garden space. Don't think Willis Johnson and some of the other for mer farmers weren't excited as well as some of the women. The grould was clay like, so Joe France had some top soil delivered. Here was this mountain of dirt waiting to be spread and tilled into the ground and the dream of a garden already started. Allie Bright's daughter said, "My husband would be glad to bring his equipment out here and get that garden going. " I asked her if she could speak for him and she said "Yes!" We were really excited then. Guess what his first tools were? Shovels for him and Wallace, one of our maintenance crew. Those two literally moved the mountain and Frank Moore, that's Annie's son-in law's name, tilled all that dirt and laid off rows and planted greens, all kinds, and watered the garden. Mr. Brown still has a row of onions to plant. I tell you, 1 couldn't believe my eyes. There it was, our garden. The same lady who said, "1 thought you were serving ice cream" said "Now, if we can only raise a hog to go with all those greens ' God love ner. Imagine us having a hog kill ing. You plant the seed around here and it usually grows. Anything is possible. Thanks so much, we couldn't have done it without you. The girls who have joined our vol unteer one on one program with pa tients are really into the swing of things now. They are working dil igently and delightfully with spe cial patients and the results are so reqarding. We now have Karen Ward, Lisa Stevenson and this past week Wanda Chappel joined us. Our Administrator deserves a lot of credit for designing this program and the volunteers are making it work. I on!y train and coordinate. Beiieve me, I couid never cover aii these bases aione. Thank you for the team work. It takes a iot of that too, for the Nursing Department is behind us ail the way, making sure these residents are ready for their activities. 4 Voiunteer of the week is Lisa Ste venson. I wish to apologize for omitting Wiiliam Cayton's name from our Birthday list for August, "Little Bud" they caii him. Happy Birth day, God bless you too. National Nursing Home Resi dents' Rights Week started on the ninth, Saturday and runs through the fifteenth. Here's how we began it -- with Grandparents' Day. Grandparents Day was Sunday, the 10th. We invited all of you and I think you all came. There was standing room only, even out in the hall. Nancy Morgan, social worker for the facility introduced the Advi sory Committee to all of you fami lies and residents sand they gave a brief explanation of what this week is all about. Literature was dis played and families and guests were invited to please take the pamphlets and read them. At 2:30 p.m. Sunday afternoon, we honored our grandparents, all of them, I fell into that category. The Grandmother with the most grand children, great and great-great was Pearle Lane. It wasn't easy, but we counted 41. She received a pink car nation corsage. The grandfather with the most grandchildren was Gilbert Harrell. He has 10 grand and great grandchildren. He re ceived a blue tipped carnation bou tineer and then Naomi Banks had the most grand children present, 3, so she received a pink carnation corsage also. The Starlight Church of Jesus Christ was in charge of the service this special Sunday a"d their message was resounding. The minister held the congregation in rapture. The choir rendered three beautiful hymns. Following the service was a re ception for everyone with refresh ments set on a table fit for the best, served from the lovely silver punch bowl and trays. The centerpiece spray was predominately pink and blue with complimentary colors The tiered candies were a coordi nating biue. Hope you ail had time to linger in our vestibuie and notice the dis play. "Looking Back In Time" in our display case. We ll be leaving it there throughout the week. Also, the Memories of Yesteryear. It tells us that August 10th 80 years Ago fell on a Friday and who was president and what was the news of the time and the favorite songs. Very inter esting. Anyway, you know we love grandparents. It shows. Dear friends, Bereavement comes to us a)) an unavoidabte port or our earth)/ exis tence. We funera) direc tors are futty aware of this, as we too have famities. We perform our duties in spirit of em pathy with the famities we server regarding each service as a sacred charge to be treated with tenderness and re spect.
