What were you doing at 14?

Forrest “Stan” Sharkey was hopping freight trains out of Indianapolis and living under a bridge in Bismarck. By 15, he was working nights as a hotel elevator operator for just $1 a day. He still chuckles as he recalls the characters he met and the stories that came with the job—just a glimpse into the many colorful memories he shares with his trademark humor.

From those bold beginnings to serving on the front lines of WWII, Stan’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary. At 99, he continues to captivate everyone with the way he tells it.

At 99, WWII Veteran Forrest “Stan” Sharkey still inspires with his humor, stories, and sharp memory. Discover his remarkable journey at Edgewood Dominion.

“Come here, too. You’ll be taken care of.” When you walk into our Edgewood Blaine community, it doesn’t take long to realize something special is happening here. Over 10 different family relationships here, in our hallways. Family is everywhere in every sense of the word.

We have brothers and sisters who both work here. A resident who gets to live here and watch her daughter and granddaughter care for one another. Sisters who pass meds together. A granddaughter who sees her grandmother not just on holidays, but every day; sharing breakfast and jokes they might never have made time for otherwise. So many mixes of three generations under one roof, each playing their part. A daughter-in-law who brings daily joy to the same place her mother-in-law calls home, while her son helps keep our building running and safe. A mother and daughter in all parts of the community; one serving smiles and one serving meals with pride.

“Some say we’re intentional. We say we’re lucky.” It didn’t happen by accident. We created a place where family can thrive. But... the real magic is the people themselves — and we’re thankful for that.

We are Edgewood.

69 years ago today, The Wizard of Oz was first televised—and we’re still learning from Dorothy’s journey!

Just like her path back to Kansas, moving to senior living can feel like stepping into the unknown.

But once the whirlwind settles, something magical happens—new friends appear, laughter returns, and your yellow brick road leads straight to HOME.

Because it’s never just about where you live—it’s about who walks beside you.

Explore how senior living at Edgewood echoes Dorothy’s journey—with courage, heart, friendship, and finding home
