Dixie Chopper Added

Thursday, March 29, 2012


An anonymous couple has given the Community a charitable gift to purchase a “gently used” Dixie Chopper Lawn Mower. This will help our Grounds Department by adding an additional mower to our “stable” and helping us update our equipment. If you have an interest in making a charitable gift or donation to FUMC, please contact Keith Van Deman, Associate Executive Director, to learn of our needs here and tax advantages available to you.

Behind the Scenes

Thursday, March 1, 2012



Our retirement community has many "behind the scenes" activities that make us who we are. For instance, one of those unsung hero departments is our Laundry. Comprised of 15 staff members, our Laundry does thousands of pounds of linen and clothes each week to care for the more than 300 residents who live in our assisted living and health care areas. Of course, the other 300 who live in their own independent homes and apartments here, have their own washers and dryers.

The picture above shows one area of the main Laundry with new adjustable tables that were recently donated, to help staff as they fold clothes.

What satisfaction it is when one of the residents proclaims, "I am so glad to have fresh towels in my place!" THANK YOU Laundry Staff!!
