This month’s #WednesdayWisdom advice comes from Sidney, a lifelong volunteer, who finds joy through helping others. For more than six decades, Sid worked to raise funds for Hadassah, an organization whose members share a passion for Israel and who are committed to making the world a better place. Now living at Gurwin Jewish ~ Fay J. Lindner Residences, Sid’s natural affinity for others is evidenced in his work on the community’s Resident Council board. “Helping people is the joy of my life," says Sid. His advice: “Volunteer.”

Gloria, a resident at Gurwin Jewish - Fay J. Lindner Residences #assistedliving, has learned to take life for all it has to offer, both the good and bad. “And when it it’s not good, you have to learn to deal with it. If you address your problems and do something about it, you will find the strength to go on. This is your one shot; don’t waste it!” Gloria’s #WednesdayWisdom advice: “Confront Your Problems.”
Happy New Year from the staff at Gurwin Jewish - Fay J. Lindner Residences! May 2021 bring health, happiness and the promise of better times ahead.
