Sunset Advent Calendar
Name: Jerry
Campus: Waterford Place
Jerry moved to Waterford Place to be closer to family. He came from a small town about three hours away and his son, living just a few miles from Waterford Place, wanted him to move closer and he "could not argue with that." Jerry says that even though he only recently moved into Waterford Place, he is already very happy here.
"As a child, my favorite holiday memories always included our entire extended family - aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents all gathered at my family's house. I remember my mom and dad moving the dining room table to the living room, so we could fit our entire family! This season always brings a sense of familiarity, which I look forward to each year. The decorations & gifts, the gatherings - I love it all! This year, I will be spending the holidays with my son and his family."
Jerry's Joke
Fun Fact - Jerry ALWAYS has a joke to share! We asked him to share a holiday joke with all of you: A local library had an information desk that people could call into. On Thanksgiving, a woman called in and asked, "How long do you cook a 12 lb. turkey for?" The desk attendant responded with, "Just a minute." so they could look for the answer. They then heard the woman say, "Okay, thank you." as she hung up the phone.
