Dorothy Lander Shares Letters and Pictures from Floridian First Graders!

Sharing Finger Lakes Foliage with Young Floridians turns into a Treasure of Letters and Drawings!

KristenMeyer 0 1788

Last Fall, Dorothy (Dot) Lander collected a box of colorful leaves and sent them to her daughter, Janet, who is a 1st grade teacher in Florida. Janet's students, many of whom had never been exposed to the beautiful Fingerlakes colors, responded in a most thoughtful way.  They drew pictures and composed letters. Dot was so surprised and overcome with joy when she opened the package. 

These pictures and letters have been displayed in the CM living room this week for all CM residents, staff, families and visitors to enjoy! A big thank you to Dot for sharing with all of us.  We have been in awe of the thoughful messages, the drawings, and the amazing penmanship coming from such young children.

Happy Birthday Dorothy!

A special surprise was in store for this birthday girl on Saturday, April 2nd!  A number of Ferris Hills residents had planned a party for Dorothy, who was turning 102!  Complete with a beautiful cake, an assortment of beverages and balloons, Dorothy was accompanied by her son and family to the celebration.

Dorothy was given a crown and a beautiful corsage and this extravaganza got even better when Chef Matt prepared her favorite meal of Lobster for her birthday dinner!  Happy Birthday Dorothy....and many more.
