Today we were honored to send off our longtime friend, Chuck, who's moving from Ecumen Point Pleasant Heights after 10 years to Ecumen North Branch. Chuck is a very proud Veteran so his sendoff was patriotic and fun - full of laughs and many good memories. All of Chuck's neighbors and friends came out to say farewell.

We'll see you again soon, Chuck!

We celebrated love today with a very special Valentine’s lunch! ❤️🌹

Our menu was nothing short of superb — glazed pork tenderloin, baked potato, prosciutto-wrapped asparagus, a crusty dinner roll, shrimp cocktail, and a delicious raspberry white chocolate cheesecake for dessert. 🍽️✨

Each guest received a hand-signed Valentine card and some sweet treats to take home. We shared plenty of laughs with some classic Ole & Lena jokes and wrapped up the celebration with a drawing for the fresh flower centerpieces. 💐

It was a wonderful afternoon filled with great food, fun, and even better company!

We enjoyed a fun New Year’s Eve party, complete with chocolate, champagne, and popcorn! We also played Christmas trivia, with seven teams vying for the title of “top dog.” To wrap up the celebration, we sang Auld Lang Syne and learned a little about the history of the song.

Happy 2026 to all!
