One week later, Brookdale Rotonda's "Puzzle Master" has completed this masterpiece! We didn't even notice the ONE puzzle piece missing until she pointed it out. When we asked her how upset she was about the missing piece, she replied "Oh, I wasn't upset over one piece now if it was more than that I would have been disappointed but not upset." Yet another lesson from our wiser generation! You could get upset about the "missing piece" or celebrate the VICTORY! Thank you Glo! We will try to remember that lesson daily!

Congratulations Clara!!! October's Everyday Hero of the Month! When residents were asked what separates Clara from the rest, their immediate answers were that she's empathetic, friendly, will do anything she can to help, and the overwhelming answer was, "Have you seen the way she does my laundry? Everything is ALWAYS perfect?" Thank you, Clara, for all of your hard word and dedication to our residents!

When we asked our "Puzzle Master" Gloria, how she does it? She replied, "To keep my mind sharp, to improve my concentration and to get a sense of achievement!" If anyone has puzzles that they have done and don't know what to do with, we would love them.
