Summer is coming to a close....
Summer is coming to a close. With that means the beginning of a new school year and less lazy summer visits....but more structured visits from our local area schools. One thing that won't be ending with summer is the Texas heat. We beat the heat by having our activities indoors. Here are a few photos from our July 4th celebration.
We celebrated the 4th with patriotic cup cakes and reminiscing of how residents have celebrated the 4th in the past with their family and friends! We had alot of stories and fun! For lunch Dean grilled hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill for residents and staff.... and we had some family members join us as well! Poor Dean didn't get to beat the heat indoors. We love ya Dean!!!!
Later in the afternoon we had a watermelon feast! We had the sweetest melons! We enjoyed a wonderful day with good food and fellowship!
July b-days celebrated...
For our July birthday party, those under 100 were presented with a single rose and we had one over 100 and she was presented with a dozen red roses! We enjoyed punch and cake provided by Family First Hospice..... as well as great entertainment by The Music Man!
One of our own....
This year at the Texas State Annual Conference for Activity Directors, Sandy Dyess who volunteers in our facility, was one of two people recognized as volunteers of the year in Texas. Sandy was out of town when this happened and Kay Cobb, IOOF Activity Director, accepted the award on her behalf. When she returned,the residents and other IOOF volunteers treated Sandy to a luncheon in her honor. Emily Valek, who is president of Residents Council, presented her with the award! As you can see in the photos she was touched deeply. She is a lady that contributes so much to the residents and facility, she truly deserved this award. We are proud that she volunteers
here! Hats off to Sandy!

Red Hatters Return...taking Ellis Co. by storm!
The Red Hatters are out and about in Corsicana again! They visited the Cook Center at Navarro College, lunched at Collin Street and shopped at Russel Stovers! WOW! What a great day we had! The Red Hatter Ladies of IOOF know how to have a good time! They never meet a stranger, so I think some of the residents of Corsicana were pleasantly surprised to run into our group!
