CEO Letter
It’s the time of year when our hearts turn toward our mothers, or as we say in the south, our mamas.
This year, I am especially thinking about my mama and remembering all the life lessons she worked hard to instill in me; many of which helped me get where I am today as a husband, a father, a friend, a CEO, and a person. I know she would have been most proud to see me honored with the opportunity to carry the Magnolia Manor organization forward when I was named the CEO of Magnolia Manor in October 2024. Actually, she would be very proud and definitely a little shocked that I survived to adulthood with any of the good sense she tried to impart to me!
I can’t help but think about some of the things she taught that, at the time, seemed inconsequential but later proved to be incredibly wise. She taught me things that every boy needs to know as they become a man: always wash your face, clean behind your ears, brush your teeth before bed, and wear clean underwear. She taught me that every man needs to know how to match their belt and shoes, what color leather dress shoe to wear with which dress pants, the appropriate length to tie my tie, and why it’s important to keep my hair cut above my collar. She also gave me her love for art, a talent I now share with my daughter and her only granddaughter.
More importantly than how to be clean and dress appropriately, my mama passed on to me her values. She taught me to value hard work because there is dignity in labor. With her wisdom, she showed me that hard work pays off, but it doesn’t always guarantee riches. My mama also demonstrated a fine example of how to treat others. She taught me to have a heart for people and to be generous with my time and resources. She stressed the importance of leading by example and always using my manners. By following her guidance, I learned to see the value in people regardless of their position in life or occupation. I’ve also learned how to love passionately and not be afraid to express it. My mama taught me to admit when I’m wrong and forgive when called for, how to be proud of myself, how to have a grateful heart, to remain positive and never give up, and so much more.
My mother taught me countless lessons, but the most important thing she imparted to me is the faith I carry today. My faith is what guides me as a husband, father, friend, and leader. The last life lesson my mama taught me was to always call our loved ones because one day we won’t be able to. I lost my mama, Barbara Fort, to a lengthy battle with cancer in 2014. She left behind an impact on my life that has become her legacy, one that I live by today.
You will read throughout this edition of Manor Living magazine stories of legacies that belong to the mothers who have gone before us and stories of the legacies that will one day be left behind. You will see employees featured who have been called to serve our residents, many of whom are mothers themselves.
This Mother’s Day, I will reflect on all that my mother imparted to me. I will also celebrate the incredible mother that my wife is and spend time gaining more wisdom from my mother-in-law, who is a resident at Magnolia Manor. We can never forget the impact good mothers make on the lives of those around them. Mothers come in all forms. Some mothers birth their children while some choose them. Sometimes they are a grandmother, aunt, or sister who loves with a mother’s love. Regardless of what form they come in, a mother’s imprint in our lives is a lasting legacy worthy of celebrating.
Magnolia Manor’s League of the Good Samaritan is the charitable arm of our organization that keeps our founders’ promise that “all who, choosing to come to Magnolia Manor, will never have to leave due to an inability to pay.” Since the inception of Magnolia Manor, the majority of recipients have been women. They have been women who have raised their children and served in their churches and communities. When the time came, they chose to move to Magnolia Manor for their safety and wellbeing, never thinking they would outlive their resources. As you think about the legacy of mothers who made an impact on your life, I ask you to think about the mothers who call Magnolia Manor home. Your support enables us to ensure they receive the quality of care they deserve and have a safe, secure, loving environment in which to enjoy their golden years.

Walk, walk, walk. I recently read an article about a man, Pico Iyer. When he arrives anywhere, his first impulse is to walk around. I believe I have a similar compulsion. I like to be very familiar with my surroundings. I began to think about this trait of mine. Even at work, the people in our office often laugh because they say that I will walk to their offices to talk even before they have had a chance to read the email that I just sent. I like moving around and connecting through face-to-face interaction.
My wife and I enjoy late afternoon walks. There is just something about being in nature, enjoying God’s masterpiece, and discussing family and our day’s events. Our favorite walking season is spring. Everything is new and fresh, and beauty envelopes us as nature is reborn and days are full of promise and renewal. Spring offers the opportunity for us all to take a new look at life. Spring gives us Easter, and what a gift it is to be able to focus on God’s creation and God’s gift of love and eternity.
Also, spring just screams take me out to the ballgame as my family loves following the Atlanta Braves. I recall the fun that my grandmother and I had watching the Braves, and I treasure those sweet memories. A real highlight of spring for many people is the Masters Golf Tournament at Augusta National. Talk about a walking trail! The Augusta National course has character, individuality, and personality. During the first full week of April, each golfer, caddy, and patron walks this course amidst the beauty of blooming azaleas, towering pines, and flowering dogwoods on a stage that is unique to golf and sport.
Spring brings beautiful scenes of nature, more time with loved ones, and spring sports to enjoy. Spring is also the time to celebrate mothers. It is such an honor to celebrate mothers, grandmothers, mothers-in-waiting, and special people who are like our moms. Magnolia Manor is proud to recognize the mothers who are residents as well as our employees who are mothers. Their presence radiates love and compassion to all.
We invite you to join us as we celebrate Mother’s Day at Magnolia Manor. You’re welcome to stop by for a visit and take a “walk” at Magnolia Manor to get familiar with our campus in your community. As you stroll around the halls, you can create new memories filled with joy and tenderness as you share warm smiles, conversation, and unconditional love with the residents and our staff.
Similar to a mother’s care, your presence can make a meaningful difference in a resident’s life at Magnolia Manor. Please consider donating a gift to our special Mother’s Day offering in memory or honor of your mother. Our Magnolia Manor family is beyond grateful for you and your support! Your generosity will help several residents continue to call Magnolia Manor their home.

MISSION
To Serve All Through Love and Support for a Lifetime VISION
Our Communities Are About Life and Living
Motherhood is a lifetime commitment of love that evolves through the phases of life. During her child’s infancy, a mother delivers close, direct care. As the years go by, she gradually adjusts her care to fit her child’s growth. The way she mothers her child may change, but the love remains the same. Linda Wellons, an Independent Living resident at Magnolia Manor in Americus, can attest to this. As a daughter, mother, grandmother, and greatgrandmother, she has experienced all the phases of motherhood and witnessed the legacy of maternal devotion come full circle.
Growing up in Americus, GA, as the youngest of four children, Linda enjoyed a happy childhood. Memories of her loving mother working tirelessly to care for her and her siblings still serve as a source of inspiration for Linda today. Despite working long hours, Linda’s mother would come home each day to prepare a homecooked meal for the family.
“In those times, we didn’t have restaurants where you could pick up food like there are now. So, she cooked for us every day. Mama was a very good cook. Her biscuits and fried chicken were wonderful!” Linda recalled.
In addition to providing nutrients for the body, Linda’s mother made sure to nurture her children spiritually. She raised them in the Christian faith and regularly took them to church on Sunday. This faith
tradition would become one that Linda carried on into her adulthood when raising her own child.
During Linda’s senior year in high school, her mother had to move away. Linda remained in Americus and moved in with her grandmother to finish the last few months of the school year. She and her high school sweetheart, Eddie Wellons, decided to tie the knot during her spring break vacation. When Linda graduated, the newlyweds settled in Americus and began their life together.
“Eddie and I first met at the gas station that his father owned. He worked there for his dad, and my mother got gas there often. Back then, they serviced the car for you. Eddie would clean the windshield and talk to me. He was a junior and I was a freshman in high school. We got married during my senior year in high school 54 years ago, and we’ve been married ever since,” shared Linda.
After nearly five years of marriage, the Wellons welcomed a new addition to the family –their daughter, Kimberly. Just like her mother, Linda instilled the Christian faith in her daughter. She also demonstrated a strong work ethic through her career endeavors. Linda worked at a local doctor’s office for 10 years. She then transitioned to work for the Georgia Department of Corrections. Linda juggled a full-time career while being a full-time mom, which is no
easy feat. For Linda, witnessing the legacy of nurturing, motherly love as it passes through the generations is a reward of motherhood that makes it all worth it.
“Kimberly means the world to us! We are blessed to have her. I’ve enjoyed watching my daughter grow into a fine young woman and raise a family of her own. She has five amazing daughters. She homeschooled all of them and she did an excellent job. Our granddaughters are all successful and we’re very proud of them,” Linda expressed.
From raising her daughter to watching her grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow, Linda is enjoying all the different roles on the journey of motherhood. She notes: “It’s hard letting your children go when they grow up. You have to let go and let them make their own decisions about life. It’s difficult to avoid giving your input when you want to. But our children have to make their own decisions. We just have to train them up and hope they make the right ones.” Sometimes those decisions involve an adult child caring for an aging parent’s wellbeing. This was the case for Linda when her
mother’s health required her to move to Magnolia Manor in 2013.
From the selection process to the move-in day and beyond, Linda was significantly supportive throughout her mother’s senior living journey. She made an effort to be present, taking every opportunity to pour back into her mother the same nurturing love her mother poured into her. Linda and her husband would visit Linda’s mother every Sunday and dine with her. Additionally, they would visit Eddie’s Uncle who was also a resident at that time.
Linda’s mother first moved into the Garden Apartments as an independent living resident. She transferred to the Retirement Center when she needed a little more assistance. When the time came for a higher level of care, the Americus Nursing Center was available to service her needs. Having a skilled staff of healthcare professionals and access to several care options gave Linda and Eddie peace of mind that their loved ones were well-cared for. It also made the decision process much easier when they began looking for a senior living community of their own to call home.
Magnolia Manor of Americus Residents, Eddie and Linda Wellons
In 2013, Linda retired from her position at the Georgia Department of Corrections and Eddie was freshly retired from a 40-year career in trucking. They sold their home, downsized to an RV, and spent the next six years traveling across the state and surrounding areas to seek out the best fishing holes. In between their travels, they would make trips to Magnolia Manor to visit their loved ones. When the traveling was all said and done, the Wellons traded their visitor badges for a permanent place as residents at Magnolia Manor in 2020.
“The main reason why we moved to Magnolia Manor was because we didn’t want to have a house to upkeep. We also didn’t want our daughter to have to choose a place for us. It’s easier to decide to move to a retirement community for yourself instead of putting your children in a position to decide for you,” Eddie explained.
Before making the move, Linda and Eddie had already built relationships with many of the residents and staff at Magnolia Manor during their frequent visits. Becoming residents gave them a chance to further establish those relationships through campus activities. Some of their favorite activities include attending social events, walking
around the neighborhood, and visiting with their neighbors. They also enjoy watching the wildlife from the comfort of their patio during the spring and summer seasons.
“We’re happy to be here! We hope to live in this apartment for the rest of our lives. But I’m glad to know that we have other stages if we get to where we can’t care for ourselves. We’ve seen all the stages, and the staff at each stage is wonderful! We’re situated for the rest of our lives here,” Linda stated.
Thanks to the League of the Good Samaritan, many of our residents can also reap the benefits of Linda’s statement. The League is Magnolia Manor’s benevolent fund designed to provide financial support to residents who can no longer afford their care. When this ministry first began, we made a promise that no resident would have to leave Magnolia Manor if they outlived their funds. We maintain this promise through the generosity of our kind donors. This Mother’s Day, we invite you to donate to the League in honor of your mother or a motherly figure in your life. Your contributions will aid in our mission to serve senior adults all through love and support for a lifetime. To donate, visit www.magnoliamanor.com/donate/. We appreciate your thoughtfulness!

Commitment to Our Faith Tradition
John 12:13 “They took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, shouting, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord! Blessed is The King of Israel!’”
“Danny, can you show me one more time?”
It was the fifth time I had asked him to show me “one more time.” As he showed me again, how to fold a palm cross, it seemed perfectly simple. However, by myself, it became a series of confusing steps that made little sense and bore precious little resemblance to a cross.
When it came to folding palm branches, I was the one all tied up in knots!
That first year, I folded two hundred palm crosses. The following year, I couldn’t remember how to do it, so I asked, “Please show me again.”
I’ve been folding palm crosses for many years now. I currently fold palm crosses each year to give to the residents at Magnolia Manor in Americus. Still, as I hear the tearing sounds each palm strip makes in becoming a cross,
it’s a chilling reminder of Christ’s flesh, as those thick nails tore through His hands and feet to securely fasten Him to the cross.
Making them reminds me that Christ prayed three times for His painful cup to pass from Him (Matthew 26:39), yet He submitted to the Father’s will.
Palm trees have no rings and are a symbol of immortality.
Revelation 7:9 “before me was a great multitude no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language,standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands.”
Victorious Roman generals often had a parade in their honor and rode on a horse, a symbol of power and wealth, as the conquered were paraded before him in chains. On Palm Sunday, Our Lord’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem was not on a horse but on a donkey, a symbol of peace and the transportation of the very poor. His triumphal entry had no captives in chains, for He came
Our Lord Jesus Christ, OUR Triumphant General, conquered sin and death. Are you part of the cheering crowd whom He has set free? We are His victory parade, the celebration of the redeemed!

Magnolia Manor of Marion County Administrator, Edward Iturburu
VALUES
Dignity, Respect, Care, and Compassion for All
Healthcare professionals are the lifeline of the medical field. Whether serving in clinical or non-clinical roles, each one is valuable and plays a special part in the quest to provide effective care. Our staff are those special people who bring about positive change that makes a meaningful difference at Magnolia Manor. We are privileged to have dedicated employees like Edward Iturburu, who joined our team in December 2023 as the campus Administrator for Magnolia Manor of Marion County. Throughout his long-standing career in healthcare, Edward continues to serve with dignity, respect, care, and compassion for all the lives he touches. Edward’s parents taught him the importance of hard work early in life. Born and raised on a five-acre farm in Orlando, Florida, chores were a typical part of his routine. Edward and his two siblings often spent evenings and weekends tending to the dogs, cows, pigs, chickens, and goats. When the work was finished, there was
always some fun to get into around town – especially with tourist attractions like Walt Disney World just steps away from their home.
Once he graduated from high school, Edward attended the University of Central Florida where he received his Bachelor’s degree in History. He furthered his studies with a post-graduate degree in Safety Management and Ergonomics. He later returned to obtain his Master’s degree in Healthcare Administration.
Edward put his education to great use and began a long career in Emergency Medicine. He lent his expertise to the field for 20 years treating people with injuries and illnesses that required urgent medical attention. Through the years, he has cared for people in various healthcare settings some of which included skilled nursing centers. Working alongside long-term care professionals gave Edward the chance to see organizations that delivered phenomenal care to their residents. He also saw Article continued on page 12
opportunities for much-needed improvement. These moments along with personal life experiences are what sparked his interest in long-term healthcare.
“I was inspired to join the long-term care field for two reasons. First, my grandmother had dementia, and a skilled nursing center with a memory care unit wasn’t common then. I wanted to help contribute to improving the industry and providing better, more accessible care. The second reason was that I knew I wanted to take care of people who would benefit from my education and experience,” Edward explained.
In December 2019, Edward started his career as a healthcare administrator. He accepted the Administrator position at Magnolia Manor
of Marion County four years later. Since then, Edward has been getting acquainted and establishing connections with residents, family members, and staff. He and the staff organized a 20-year celebration for Magnolia Manor of Marion County last fall. Resident family members, local community partners, and friends came out to enjoy games, food, and fellowship with residents and staff. It’s safe to say that Edward is already making a great impact at Magnolia Manor. Magnolia Manor has made quite an impression on Edward too.
“I was searching for an organization that has a faith-based work philosophy. I wasn’t only looking for a non-profit organization, but an organization that takes the teachings of Christ
Magnolia Manor of Marion County Administrator, Edward Iturburu
as their base core. I’ve found that at Magnolia Manor,” Edward shared.
In addition to a faith-based work philosophy, Edward takes a continuous learning approach to healthcare that he hopes to instill in the staff. He believes healthcare professionals should grow and develop as technology advances and healthcare changes. Motivated by a commitment to caring for others, Edward plans to embrace every growth opportunity available to Magnolia Manor of Marion County.
“I feel that my purpose and passion here on this earth is to take care of others. I have done this in different capacities throughout my entire career. The interaction we as healthcare professionals can provide to the residents daily is rewarding.
We can make life better for people with just a kind word or gesture,” Edward stated.
When he isn’t at Magnolia Manor positively impacting lives, Edward spends time with his wife, Jennifer, who works at Magnolia Manor as well. He also enjoys visiting with his children, Isaiah and Emily. Edward notes that they have grown into responsible young adults who have made him proud. Although the children have moved out of the house, the nest isn’t empty at the Iturburu house. They have five dogs to keep them busy.
We are grateful to have Edward on the team at Magnolia Manor of Marion County, and we look forward to a bright future ahead!

Magnolia Manor on the Coast Volunteers, Mel Silva and Donna Garcia
VALUES
Healthy Mind, Body, and Spirit
Volunteers are special people who willingly dedicate their time and efforts to an organization or a cause without receiving payment. Instead of seeking monetary compensation, volunteers aim to make a positive impact on people and their communities. Many people find that volunteering not only helps the people they serve, but it helps them also. Volunteering often creates mutually beneficial relationships that contribute to a healthy mind, body, and spirit for everyone involved. Two of our volunteers at Magnolia Manor on the Coast in Richmond Hill have explored this concept and discovered it to be true in their lives.
If you’ve had the privilege of attending an event or visiting during the holidays, you’ve probably seen someone dressed in festive attire fitting for each occasion at the Richmond Hill campus. Some may have already discovered this person’s identity. But for those who are still guessing, the woman behind the colorful costumes is none other than Donna Garcia.
She’s been the Pink Elf at Christmas and the Easter Bunny. We’ve seen her strutting her stuff as a turkey for the annual Turkey Trot event. She’s even dressed as a heart for Valentine’s Day and so much more. Donna has an array of outfits that have earned her the unspoken award for Best Costume, but it isn’t the only title she wears. For the past five years, Donna has volunteered at Magnolia Manor on the Coast. After retiring from a 23-year career in the U.S. Army, Donna
and her husband settled in Richmond Hill. They had been living on the Fort Stewart Army Base where Donna was stationed. The couple purchased a home not too far from Magnolia Manor. On one of her drives around town, Donna noticed the campus, and it sparked her curiosity.
“I saw this building that was situated in a wooded area. I wanted to know what it was, so I Googled it. I got a hold of Lynne and asked if I could volunteer. She set up a meeting and showed me around. Then she asked me what I’d like to do,” Donna explained.
As a certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor, Donna saw an opportunity to put her skills to use. She began offering chair aerobics classes for the residents. Several residents attend her classes every Monday and Wednesday at 9:30 AM. Donna also organized a walking group. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 10:00 AM, residents join her to walk the scenic trails by the pond on the campus.
Donna is a personal trainer, a volunteer, and a woman of many creative costumes. She’s also a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). She learned about the role of a CNA when her mother fell ill and needed close medical attention. Donna moved her mother from her hometown in New York to live with her and her husband. She then hired a hospice CNA to make house visits. Donna also assisted in caring for her mother. Unfortunately, her mother
Article continued on page 18
passed away. Losing her mother was a devastating experience for Donna, but she used her experience as inspiration to help others. She enrolled at the Midway Infinite Healthcare Academy and obtained her CNA license.
“I’ve always enjoyed caring for people even as a child growing up. I’d always volunteer to help a neighbor in need. My mom was like that as well. I think her example inspired me to do the same,” Donna shared. “It’s good to be part of a community. Whether it’s a senior living community, a nursing center, or a local church, getting out there to get to know the people in the community is good. It builds meaningful connections.”
Similar to Donna, Mel Silva’s passion for volunteering derives from parental influences. However, for Mel, the passion wasn’t always present. When she and her family moved to the United States from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Mel was a sophomore in high school. Her father encouraged her to excel in academics and volunteer work to become a more well-rounded individual. In addition to building character, he anticipated that focusing on these
areas would be beneficial to Mel’s college career. As a result, Mel started volunteering in her junior year of high school. What started as simply obeying her father’s request grew to be an unexpected joy that changed Mel’s perspective forever.
“I didn’t want to volunteer at first. I was taking advanced placement (AP) classes and preparing for college, so I didn’t think I had time for it. But my dad was very adamant about it. He told me that there were no discussions. I had to volunteer. But he allowed me to choose where I volunteered. Magnolia Manor on the Coast was one of the places I chose,” Mel explained.
Mel’s first volunteer opportunity at Magnolia Manor was reading books to a resident. Mel would come every Tuesday and spend an hour reading murder mysteries, the resident’s favorite book genre. They each took turns recommending books to read. Mel also started a coloring group. Once she finished reading for the day, she would meet a few residents for a therapeutic coloring session. Many joined the group for the coloring but it was the conversations and fellowship that kept them coming back.

“There’s a lot of chit-chatting that goes on when we color. I’m very talkative and loving, so I enjoy it. The residents always ask me about my life. They ask about my grades and if I’ve been up to any trouble. I try to be doing something interesting so I can share it with them,” stated Mel.
They share more than just colored pencils, crayons, and colorful stories. They also share in celebratory moments. When Mel graduated from high school, the residents and staff of Magnolia Manor held a surprise celebration for her. Mel recalls that there were cupcakes with “Congrats Grad” written on them, an inflatable graduation hat, and school supplies waiting for her. It was an unforgettable moment that she still cherishes.
“They are always surprising me. One of the residents, who recently passed away, used to make her own greeting cards. She made one special for me. She and all the ladies signed it and gave it to me. They help me celebrate my milestones, big and small. It’s so special because they don’t have to do it. They do it because they care,” Mel shared.
Since Mel is several hours away at Mercer University, she doesn’t get to volunteer at
Magnolia Manor as often. She is currently studying psychology with the hopes of pursuing a career in child clinical therapy or other areas of psychology. Life is quite busy for Mel, but she still comes back to visit the residents for one of their coloring chitchats when she can.
“There’s truly no other reason for me to come back to visit other than I want to. I enjoy spending time with the residents. If you told the high school version of me that I would take time out of my day to spend with senior adults and have the time of my life, I would’ve never believed you. I didn’t want to do it in the beginning. But now, I genuinely make time to come here because I love it,” stated Mel.
We are grateful for each of our volunteers at Magnolia Manor. Their selfless compassion for serving others makes an invaluable positive impact on our residents and communities. For that we say, thank you to all of our volunteers! If you’re interested in becoming a volunteer at Magnolia Manor, please visit https://www.magnoliamanor. com/volunteer/. We’d love to have you!

Magnolia Manor of Macon Resident, Jerome Adside
CREATIVE CORNER
Magnolia Manor thrives on the vibrant creativity of its residents across all of our eight campuses. The atmosphere here is infused with artistic energy as individuals express themselves through various mediums. Whether it’s the soothing strokes of a paintbrush on a canvas, the intricate designs of needlepoint, or the melodious notes of music resonating through the halls, our residents showcase remarkable creative abilities. They eagerly share their passions, fostering a close-knit community centered around the joy of artistic expression. One of these talented residents is Jerome Adside, who has been sharing his beautiful voice with others since he was only four years old.
Jerome is a proud native of Macon, Georgia, where he grew up in a bustling household filled with the warmth of family. From a young age, he was surrounded by the pleasant sounds of gospel hymns, often echoing through the rooms of their home as his parents would sing with heartfelt devotion. By the time he celebrated his fourth birthday, Jerome had already captivated the congregation at the Duresville Church of Christ, charming them with solo performances reflecting his love for music and deep-rooted faith.
“My parents inspired me to sing. My mom was a great singer, and my dad was a member of a gospel group for years when I was young,” reminisced Jerome. “My dad got me to sing ‘Jesus Keep me Near the Cross’ in our church when I was four.”
His father watched with pride as his son grew up. Jerome enthusiastically shook cans together, trying to find a rhythm in their clattering chaos. The sparkle in his eyes, filled with a passion for music, revealed the
depth of his emerging talent. It became increasingly clear to his father that he would become a remarkable musician.
Jerome’s musical journey unfolded with remarkable speed and enthusiasm. He took a bold step forward by the tender age of seven, fueled by a passion for song and a supportive family. With the heartfelt encouragement of several relatives, who eagerly joined his cause, he founded a gospel group named ‘The Spiritual Six of Macon.’ As the group blossomed, Jerome confidently stepped into the spotlight as the lead vocalist, pouring his heart into each performance. Together, they captivated audiences in local churches and resonated throughout the surrounding communities, sharing a message of hope and inspiration through their uplifting melodies.
In 1971, a significant milestone unfolded in the journey of The Spiritual Six when Jerome and his bandmates set out for Atlanta, Georgia, to record their very first song. Little did he realize that this moment would mark the beginning of an extraordinary chapter that would see him singing with the group until 2013. The Macon Spiritual Six also recorded an album which can be found on YouTube. Over the next 41 years, Jerome would embark on countless tours across the eastern United States, from the sun-kissed shores of Florida to the bustling streets of Ohio, sharing the uplifting message of Christ through the power of song.
He packed the van enthusiastically before picking up each band member along their route. Almost every weekend, they would grace the stages of churches, performing soul-
Article continued on page 24
stirring gospel music that resonated with the hearts of hundreds of attendees. Their harmonies filled the air, creating a sanctuary of joy and spirituality as they transformed each gathering into a vibrant celebration of faith that lingered in the minds and spirits of all who listened.
“At that time, gospel music was popular, and I could provide for my family doing what I loved most, singing,” said Jerome.
As Jerome’s singing career flourished, so did his family, blossoming into a vibrant and loving unit. He is the proud father of three spirited daughters and one adventurous son, who adore him. During the workweek, when his children were younger, Jerome prioritized carving out precious moments with them, cherishing every opportunity to bond amidst his hectic schedule. His relationship with his kids is incredibly close-knit, filled with laughter, warmth, and memorable experiences. Two of his daughters inherited their father’s passion for singing.
When the moment arrived for Jerome to seek out a retirement community, his two daughters eagerly stepped in to assist him in navigating the myriad of options available. They wanted to find a warm and welcoming place where he could be happy, surrounded by a supportive environment. Proximity was also a priority; they envisioned a community where Jerome could enjoy their company regularly, allowing family bonds to flourish even in this new chapter of his life. Together, they delved into research, reviewing brochures and visiting potential communities, hoping to find the perfect match for their father. He moved to Magnolia Manor of Macon in 2021.
Soon after moving in, Jerome joined the Men’s Club on campus and has been actively planning activities for our residents and making friends. These activities keep the residents engaged and allow them to live fulfilling lives. If you want to learn more about Magnolia Manor and what we offer, follow us on social media or visit www.magnoliamanor.com.
Magnolia Manor of Macon Resident, Jerome Adside, with Chaplain Nancylee Cater
Dear Friend,
On Mother’s Day, we often reflect on our memories of growing up. Some of us think of our own journeys through motherhood. Many of us probably have memories filled with laughter and love, as well as tears and heartache. For mothers, some days can seem like a blur – hard and endless; but the years seem to fly by quickly. How can both be true at the same time? I can’t answer how this is possible, but I can attest to its truth!
Linda Wellons, an Americus Independent Living Resident, told us, “I’ve enjoyed watching my daughter grow into a fine young woman and raise a family of her own. It is hard letting your children go when they grow up. You just have to train them up and hope they make the right decisions.”
Linda’s sentiments directly reflect the Lord’s instructions to mothers found in Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Have you ever considered motherhood to be a calling? God says that children are like arrows in our quiver. He calls us to raise them with the goal of releasing them as adults to fulfill their designated purpose. We give our best efforts to mold them as children and instill a firm foundation for them to pull from as they move through their adult lives and possibly into parenthood. When that time comes, mothers can be a resource to help guide their children on the same path they walked as parents. God works in wondrous ways!
We invite you to recognize your mother or a mother figure in your life with a donation to Magnolia Manor’s League of the Good Samaritan. The League is the benevolent arm of Magnolia Manor that provides our residents with financial support and chaplaincy services. Your contribution to The League of the Good Samaritan helps Magnolia Manor continue to deliver extra love and support to our senior residents. We greatly appreciate your generosity!
Sincerely,
Chealsea Cromer Director of Donor Relations
