"Life’s hardships and joys are fertilizers in the garden of life."
Remarkable advice we receive from Bob who resides at Edgewood Minot on Tenth. He was born in Binford, North Dakota, and is #11 of 13 kids, so he knows a thing or two about standing out in a crowd. He started working at 14 as a bundle hauler and later served two years in the military, building a life marked by having a knack for seeing the silver lining in every situation.
Growing up with little, Bob found joy in the simple things: a good book, a quiet moment, and later, faith discovered through sobriety. He proudly celebrates 67 years alcohol-free. And, at the age of 62, he began preaching for the next 20 years, encouraging others to reconnect with what matters most.
It's about extraordinary people who inspire others through their achievements. Because, at Edgewood, we make it a place where every resident’s life and stories are celebrated. We are Edgewood.
