Resident of the Month<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The assisted living center in Soda Springs where mother is currently living publishes a monthly newsletter and sends us a copy each month. She was the featured resident for the month of January. The writeup is mostly correct … she was born in Ophir, Utah. She was actually married on D Day, which was June 6, 1944.<\/p>\n

She has come to rather enjoy the assisted living center. They treat her well. She has a nice room (well decorated thanks to my sisters!) and as much privacy as she wishes. Church is held each Sunday morning (a short meeting) along with Relief Society and Family Home Evening during the week, so she has good Church activity in her life. The only downside is that she has no transportation at all. The only way she can get uptown to do any shopping or other business (like voting!) is to ask someone to take her. She’s quite independent and doesn’t like having to ask anyone for anything.<\/p>\n

Her eyesight has badly deteriorated and she can no longer read much of anything unless it is in very large print. This is difficult for a woman who has loved to read her entire life. She spend a delightful week in Green River, Wyoming with my favorite brother over Christmas and spent New Years with my sister Eileen in Sandy. She does get quite a few visitors … but would happily have many more visitors. She’s doing very well for an 89-year-old woman!<\/p>\n
