Resident of the Month
Join us for the
Birthday & Resident
of the Month
Celebration
on Friday,
Sept. 24th at 2:00 pm
in the Dining Room
It is a pleasure to announce John Roth as our Resident
of the Month! John joined the Mennowood family in
January and quickly became a friend or “adopted”
brother of many of the staff and residents.
John has a wonderful sense of humor and is very
sensitive to the needs of others. He likes to make sure
that everyone is taken care of. He will even alert staff to
someone walking alone in the courtyard, just to make
sure they are okay.
John attends many activities and loves cornhole,
where he either plays or acts as “Cheerleader
Extraordinaire”! He can “woo hoo!” like no one else!
When he is not in an activity, he can usually be found in
the courtyard enjoying the scenery and/or music with
“adopted sisters”, Ginny and Edna.
CONGRATULATION JOHN!
WE LOVE YOU!
