Nowhere was the spirit of Christmas more evident than here at The
Spearly Center. Our community looked like one big family on Christmas
Day: staff in the Gift Giving Parade were decked out in their red and
green holiday outfits, residents were busy opening their many gifts,
and everybody enjoyed the Christmas dinner complete with turkey, roast
beef, stuffing, gravy, corn, and an assortment of holiday pies.
Weeks before this special holiday, residents completed their wish
list- everything from clothes, jewelry, sports memorabilia, and hobby
kits- of what they desired to receive from Santa. You could hear the
sound of tearing wrapping paper and see the smiles on residents' faces
when they opened their presents. Some residents proudly tried on
their new jackets, pajamas and sweatsuits, while others got right to
work on their new puzzle or art project. The gratitude and
contentment was contagious, and a good time was had by all!
