As fit as can be, in Gem Estates

February 17, 2016 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

A recent Monday night yielded top euchre players — June Bouchard for the ladies, and a tie for the men of Ron Raymond and Richard Peske. And, on a Wednesday, Marlin Thomas was a three-game shuffleboard champ.

Our Thursday morning coffee hour hosts were Floyd and Beverly Becker, Roger and Jan Becker, and Gene and Joyce Anderson. Bruce Hudson gave the invocation. Richard Burgess led the “Pledge of Allegiance” and moderated the conversation.

Linda Files is in sickbay.  Deann Harrington, Mel Reinbold, and Rusty Siler’s daughter, Rebecca, are in recovery.

Those celebrating birthdays included John Trundy, Marlin Thomas and Ellie Brookins.

Gem Estates is privileged to have three outstanding exercise groups. All three meet each week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Ann Casey leads yoga at 8 a.m., Karen Wyant leads the chair exercise group at 9 a.m., and at 10 a.m., Ellie Brookins leads “Stepping to the Beat.”
