✨🎄 Christmas Cheer at Our Community! 🎄✨

Today we had the sweetest group of children visit our residents! They sang Christmas carols and passed out handmade cards — and it was absolutely adorable. 💕

Their kindness and holiday spirit filled the building with smiles, laughter, and a whole lot of Christmas joy. 🎶❤️

Thank you to these wonderful kids (and their families!) for bringing so much warmth to our residents’ day! 🎁😊

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity within our community! One of our residents’ daughters, the owner of Pots on the BLVD, created stunning Christmas arrangements to welcome our residents, families, and guests this holiday season.

Her company also operates Pure Joy Flower Co., a wonderful flower collective dedicated to giving back. For every bouquet purchased from a partnering florist, another arrangement is donated to an assisted living facility or community organization—spreading joy one blossom at a time. 💐❤️

We feel so lucky to have this connection and to enjoy such meaningful kindness. These festive arrangements are already brightening our halls and our hearts!

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.
