STAFF SPOTLIGHT:
Ilona Roczo Ilona Roczo is our housekeeper in Independent Living and keeps everything spotless. She has many other talents, including baking and gardening. Ilona is always making fabulous treats such as the peach pie in the photo…or what’s left of it. Our residents come in first thing in the morning to see what tasty things Ilona has left for them in the cozy corner. She will pick up various fresh fruit such as grapes, cherries, and plums to share. Since her garden is coming along, she has been bringing cucumbers and peppers. Ilona laughed and said, “I hope my tomatoes start ripening soon as many are waiting for them.” “Geisha Girl,” a Drawing entry by Robert Ayer
