Celebrating Westminster's
Oldest Residents
|
|
On Saturday, September 13th, Westminster Cares and town residents recognized Westminster’s 90+ year-old citizens during the annual Celebration of Aging. The event was held outdoors, on the back lawn of the Institute with nearly 80 people in attendance including guests of honor, their families, volunteers, board members and members of the community. The weather cooperated for a beautiful, sunny day to honor our oldest community residents with a presentation and lunch. The highlight of the event was the presentation by Pete Harrison, vice president, addressing each of the honored guests. The lively presentation included interesting family history; places lived; companies worked for; and stories about their lives in the community. Westminster currently has (at least) thirteen residents who are 90 years of age or older: Bill Smidutz, Alma Beals, Randy Major, Don Nowers, Lucille Donovan, Keith Gallup, Betty Kennedy, Carolyn Muzzey, David Rohn, Gay Jesup and “newcomers” Warren Muzzey, Marlene O’Connor, and Shirley Frost. This year, ten residents were able to attend the event.
