🌟 Staff Spotlight 🌟

April finds our facility celebrating our Resident Assistant Jennifer Hoffman, who has been with Whispering Willow for 8 years. Jennifer has worked in the healthcare field for 20 years and loves caring for the elderly. When asked what her favorite part of working in our Memory Wing is, Jennifer states that “every day is a new day.” The most rewarding part of her work here is the relationships she gets to form with both tenants and their family members.

In her free time Jennifer enjoys spending time with family and friends, going to the movies, and learning to cook. Something most people don’t know about Jen is that she has started three kitchen fires in her quest to learn to cook… thankfully cooking is not part of her duties at our facility!

Dolly Parton is one famous person Jen would love to have dinner with as she is inspired by her movies and especially loves her song “Coat of Many Colors.” Jen loves the series Yellowstone and cowboys in general. If Jennifer was asked for advice to give someone coming into the Resident Assistant role, it would be to work on your patience and take lots of deep breaths. Jen feels that talking to residents and asking them questions is the best way to build relationships with them and their families. One thing that Jennifer would like people to know about working with seniors is that they will always tell you the truth, good or bad. Join us in celebrating this loyal employee!

🌟Resident Spotlight🌟

For this month’s resident spotlight, we are pleased to celebrate Ilene Weikert who has been a tenant at our community for a little over three years. Ilene is 91 years old and hails from Horton, Iowa, where she was part of a family of 10 children. Ilene was a devoted housewife and mother to five children; when her last child graduated from high school, Ilene had an exciting second chapter of driving semi-truck with her husband for 16 years. Ilene is a proud grandmother to 20 grandchildren and over 40 great grandchildren!

One thing people may be surprised to learn about Ilene is that she played softball with her daughters for about 20 years. One thing that would not surprise most people who know her, is that her favorite book is the Bible. Ilene was a talented seamstress who made custom patterns for competition rodeo shirts and had many other talents, including playing the piano and singing hymns with her girls.

If Ilene could give one piece of advice to the younger generations, it would be “Just try. You’ll never know what you can achieve if you believe you can do it!” Ilene has fond memories of a dog named Will C. who she was lucky enough to call her friend as well as her pet. Nowadays Ilene spends most of her time doing word puzzles and reading the Good Book. Ilene has no fear of dying as she is looking very much forward to seeing the beauty of Heaven; she says she has waited her entire life for this trip and cannot wait until the day she gets to go. Let’s show this lovely lady some love!
