Embrace Living with Reva Sipser: Going Places

“Embrace Living With Our Elders” is a blog for Elders of the St. John’s communities to offer their perspective on a variety of topics. Elders are encouraged to post about whatever interests them, whether it be food, books, movies, politics, line dancing, or anything else. Elders can share stories about their day or their lives. They can share recipes or their thoughts on kids today. This is their space to tell their stories.

Residents at Meadows and Brickstone make good use of transportation service.

 

I would say “Hats off” to our transportation department, but it’s too cold to be bare-headed! Still, I cannot offer enough praise to David Kunz and his staff, who have taken such good care of us this winter. Whether for grocery shopping or medical appointments or just a chance to visit friends and family, to attend a play or concert, or a trip to the train station or airport, our transportation department has provided cheerful, timely, efficient service to all our residents here.

Throughout the cold, miserable winter, no one has had to be a “shut-in.”

For those interested in statistics, I’d like to add that since David’s arrival on March 3, 2014, until the end of the year, he has received 16,751 requests for rides and has fulfilled them all.
