April has been a beautiful, busy month! A new resident, Della Bolt moved in to PG. Della (86) raised 4 girls in Brunswick GA (Darlene, Christine, Henrietta and Della Mae, in Brunswick GA) outlived 3 husbands, and spent the last 30 years living near Houston. Her last husband, Guy Bolt, was a close friend of our family… built the house I was raised in, in Maryland and Della was one of my mom’s best friends. Della has been a big help wherever she’s been, and we’re glad for her influence already at PG. Here she is her first day at PG and then with her daughters Chris and Della Mae and their husbands and granddaughter.
Jeannette Ford passed away in Fort Wayne IN. Jeannette visited Esther Potts here several times, and then was a resident here for some months in 2015. She fell and broke her hip, was in rehab here until it became clear she wouldn’t walk again… so she was moved to a nursing home in Fort Wayne. Here’s a picture of Jeannette enjoying hot fudge Sundays with Elton and Karen Cleveland when she first came to PG. Also links to her funeral notes and pamphlet.
