Celebrating Fathers

| June 22, 2015

COSHOCTON – Windsorwood Place celebrated Fathers’ Day with a country and western theme on Saturday afternoon, June 20, as “Elvis” entertained the residents and guests in attendance and Bob Bigrigg played a mean “air guitar” to the soundtrack of “Rocky Top”. In a solemn moment, everyone participated in thanking veterans as several veterans that reside at the facility proudly displayed what is called “The Honor Flag”, which is the flag that lists all those lost on September 11, 2001. Pictured is Elvis impersonator Eric Bressi with residents Lister Endsley and Lewis “Ed” Baker, who both served in World War II. Baker was a POW of the Germans for well over a year. Activities Director Marla Myers organized the day for the residents with western style food, cowboy hats, western garb and more.
