The True Meaning of Christmas The True Meaning of Christmas KristenMeyer / Friday, January 3, 2025 0 2756 Since the beginning of December, so much has happened at Clark Meadows. It was hard to keep up with our activity’s coordinator and her team. They planned so many wonderful activities and events. The magic of the holidays was brought to Clark Meadows in a special way this year with this new team of creative energy. We have our fun traditions at Clark Meadows, but every year there are moments created that make each year memorable. It is a time where we do miss those who aren’t with us anymore, but with the help of our activities team we created a lot of busyness, but most importantly joy. Before we knew it, it was Christmas Eve. On December 24th some of us gathered for a candlelight service. Residents from Clark Meadows and Ferris Hills participated with readings and musical performances. We turned on our battery-operated candles as we sang the closing hymn, Silent Night. It reminded me of candlelight services I attended as a child, but this one was different. This community touches me as I’m sure it does many of our staff. The kindness, beauty, and truth that we experience from our elderly give us courage to face life cheerfully. It is a privilege to work here and participate in the daily lives of our residents. I took that candle with me that night and it lighted my way home. Read more

Lynne Standish / Friday, April 8, 2022 / Categories: Ferris Hills Events, Ferris Hills Blog Love Boat: Confessions of a ship's surgeon It is so great to see the number of residents in our community coming out to support one of their own. On Thursday, April 7th, retired Dr. Bernard Oseroff presented a power point about his time working on his very own Love Boat! Dr. Oseroff worked on the SS America where Doctors are referred to as "Assistant Surgeons". He did make the point that he never performed surgery, but rather was the family medicine doctor for crew and up to 600 passengers at a time. In order to work on this steamship, he also had to be certified as an "able bodied seaman" by the U.S. Coast Guard. The SS America was a very luxurious ship, the length of two football fields! During his time on the ship, he mentioned meeting the most beautiful woman he had ever seen before! This lovely lady would become his wife of 54 years. Dr. Oseroff or "Bern" as residents call him, reminisced about days gone by, shared artwork of the ship, as well as photographs of his time on this steamship. Previous Article Happy Birthday Dorothy!
