Queensway residents
bake gingerbread cookies
HENSALL - Residents of
Queensway Nursing Home were
busy Monday afternoon making
Christmas gift tags. It's a relaxing
and enjoyable activity and they are
a very saleable item.
The minister was unable to con-
duct a service Tuesday afternoon so
activity staff and residents contrib-
uted to a very meaningful service
with several mentioning Bible vers-
es that were special to them. In the
evening Christian Reformed Sing-
ers led a program of Christmas
hymns and a reading and joined the
residents afterward for refresh-
ments.
The Baking Club produced gin-
gerbread men Thursday afternoon.
The Dining Club Thursday eve-
ning had a good turnout with sever-
al staying for the movie "White
Christmas", a classic with Bing
Crosby. Volunteer Marg Cole
loaned the movie to Queensway.
Several United Church youth
plus leaders Joan and Debbie assist-
ed residents and supplied prizes at
Bingo Friday evening. They pre-
sented each resident with a hand-
made Christmas decoration. All
had a great evening.
Kim Reddick's voice students
provided a musical afternoon Satur-
day when they sang solos, duets,
and quartets accompanied by Kim
on her electric piano. The residents
were an appreciative audience.
Residents of the home mourn the
Toss of Joe Bertram and Gladys
Cooper, who have passed away re-
cently. Volunteer Chaplain Winnie
Hutton will be leading a memorial
service for them Tuesday, Decem-
ber 19 at 2 p.m.
