PRESIDENT’S PEN Dear Friends, Community is defined as “a group of people living together in one place, especially one practicing common ownership.” But it Michele is also defined as “a feeling Compton, of fellowship with others, Board as a result of sharing President common interests and goals.” Windsor Gardens definitely matches the first definition and I hope the second definition describes us, as well. This will be my last President’s Pen. After filling the role of president for four years, I chose not to run for the presidency this year. There are talented and experienced board members who would like the opportunity to lead. The board has elected one of those skillful members, Bobbie Mays, to direct the community this next year as the president. I am fully confident that you will be blessed by her leadership. The opportunity to serve this community has been inspiring. I plan to continue to serve the community for the remaining two years of my term on the board. The joy of working closely with the other board members, the staff and members of the community has been immense. Thank you for your support and your kindness. As we face new challenges in the future, I hope and pray the fellowship of common interests and goals will be the glue that holds us firm. Sincerely yours, Michele Compton
