This week was National Assisted Living Week! We are proud to recognize our Program Manager, Jennifer Army.

A special presentation was made on Thursday afternoon to recognize Jennifer Army, Program Manager, for her excellent leadership during these challenging times.  We would like to share what was presented.

Clark Meadows has helpers everywhere!  It was in early March when things started to get scary and I looked around and quickly realized that this is where I feel safe, this is where I can laugh, and this is where I want to be everyday when the world goes a little crazy.  There was true leadership here.  Creating an environment where the residents and staff's safety were priority #1.  There was one person who had to make some tough decisions.  Changing our daily life was how we were going to stay safe and it had to be done without creating a panic.  I witnessed this person stand her ground with the hospital, DOH, outside visitors, ancillary medical staff, and each of us as we tried to adapt.  This person is a leader in every sense of the word and she is our Corona Virus Conquerer.  There's no one like our very own Jennifer Army.  (presented by Kristen Meyer)

A special award was presented to Jenn with residents and staff surrounding her.  Thank you for everything you do!

Ferris Hills and Clark Meadows Men's Group enjoys presentation by Tom Mees on Sonnenberg History

Ferris Hills resident Tom Mees recently gave a fascinating presentation on the history of Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park to our men's group.  With a deep appreciation for local history and a true gift for storytelling, Tom had the audience captivated by his knowledge of this local gem.

In addition to sharing historical insights, Tom enocuraged anyone interested in volunteering at Sonnenberg to get involved - help is always welcome!

One interesting question came up during the discussion: How did Sonnenberg get its name? Tom explained that "Sonnenberg," meaning Sunny Hill in German, was the postal name of the property when it was purchased.  Fittingly, the estate sits at the crest of Fort Hill Avenue.

Tom also shared the story of how Fred and Mary Thompson met: at Mary's father's farewell banquet ball in Albany, NY.  At the time, her father was serving as Governor of New York State.  It was love at first sight.  Just six months later, Fred and Mary were married in the Clark family home, located behind the United Church on Gibson Street.
