They have always led our ways. They have always held our hands. They have always protected us, loved us and cared for us. Now it is our turn to return the favours and make their old age a beautiful one.
It is easy to show your respect and gratitude for the older adults in your life. There are many ways to thank seniors for their contributions and to show them just how much they are appreciated. Here are just a few:

say “thank you”
call and take some time to say “hi”
run errands for a senior
help with some outdoor chores

Always remember to care of the hands that took care of you. Hope you have a pleasant day under the present circumstances within our community. I will be passing out some painting kits to those who wish to have them. I have a limited supply of 15 kits. I also have t-shirts, coffee mugs and puzzles if you would like to have some. I will make a porch drop off to your home.

Contact me at 418-392-1926 to claim your kit.
