Yesterday we held a truly magical Wizard of Oz Celebration of Life for our wonderful manager, Tee.
Every one of our ground floor areas were beautifully decorated to the incredibly high standards that Tee always inspired us to achieve. Family, friends and colleagues came dressed in bright colours or as Wizard of Oz characters, creating a day filled with laughter, tears, cherished memories and, of course, plenty of dancing.
The day was simply perfect, and i know that each and everyone of you/us made Tee proud. We did what Horsforth Manor does best – we came together as one team to organise and deliver our biggest event to date.
I have no doubt that, wherever Tee was watching from, she was smiling, nodding and saying, "Well done," because she taught us all so much.
Tee will be forever missed but never forgotten. Her passion, determination, kindness and pursuit of excellence will continue to live on in everyone who walks through the doors of Horsforth Manor.
We feel incredibly fortunate that we were all able to come together as one big family to celebrate Tee's life in a way that reflected the joy, love and magic she brought to so many people.
We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to making yesterday such a memorable occasion. Our heartfelt thanks go out to our exceptional team, our amazing residents, their families, and all those who provided support from the head office. We are especially grateful to Jonathan and Elizabeth and the rest of their family for their incredible assistance throughout this challenging period.
During the celebration we raised money for the Sir Ambulance, he messaged me later that evening to say that we had collected a whopping £441.89p
Thank you Little Movers Leeds West for sharing your spr ead a little kindness money jar. It has gone to an amazingly cause.
Now, we carry Tee's legacy forward.
We will continue to be the incredible team she believed in.
We will continue to ensure our residents are happy, safe and respected.
We will continue striving to be better every single day.
Somewhere over the rainbow, we hope you know just how loved you are, Tee. 💚🌈✨
