Today we took part in our own Walk to End Alzheimers. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed purple sundaes afterward!
While this year’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s events will be different, they continue to be deeply meaningful. They continue to help raise awareness about the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States. They continue to help raise funds that make a difference in the lives of those facing Alzheimer’s. Brookdale Senior Living Inc. continues to be one of the largest corporate supporters of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. This year, thousands of Brookdale associates, residents, and patients are participating in or supporting virtual walks across the country.

Margie was originally from New York City but moved to the Albany area as a child. She still loves reminiscing about NYC. Margie went to college at Oneonta State and became an Elementary School Teacher. In fact, one of her first jobs was running a one-room schoolhouse!

Veterans Day is a very special, yet somber day to many Americans. At Brookdale Fayetteville, we honored our veterans as well as lost and missing service people with "A Salute to Courage and Freedom." We observed the "Missing Man" and set a place for those who did not return from war. We prayed together and sang patriotic songs. We honored the veterans in our building with applause and thanks and had the most American lunch we could think of, chili cheese dogs and fries! Thank you to all who have served and continue to serve our great nation!
From all of us at Brookdale, happy Veterans Day to those who have served to protect our freedom.
