Staying FIT?
Everyone knows fitness is important. How have you taken steps to be fit? What’s your regular fitness routine? If you’ve started a fitness routine late in life, what advice would you have for others? How do you think you benefit from regular exercise? If you’ve got a story to share, contact Cindy Moore and your story could be featured in an upcoming edition of Community Matters.

The month of March is filled with many fascinating theme days to celebrate! The most commonly known special days and times are St. Patrick’s Day, Lent, Daylight Savings Time, the first day of spring, and of course March Madness. This year, Sterling Presbyterian Manor is also celebrating heritage, dominoes, names, mysteries and fairy tales. March is Greek and Irish heritage month. Unfortunately, no one at Sterling Presbyterian Manor seems to have Greek heritage. Jessie Marguerite Mahoney said her family is of Irish heritage, although she does not remember any special traditions that were passed down.

Jessie Marguerite Mahoney is of Irish heritage, just as her name sounds.
