(photo/PatBolen) Party at QueenswayAug. 26 HENSALL — Sunshine and a light breeze added to the enjoyment of Sunday's afternoon worship and music program with Bob Heywood, held out- doors in Queensway's courtyard. Heywood led everyone in countless old, sacred hymns accompanying himself on accordion. Every seat on the deck area and courtyard was filled and several visi- tors brought their own lawn chairs as well. Following the program, volunteers Lillian Beer and Marg Cole helped serve ice cream sundaes to the crowd. The picnic benches by the fountain were a pleasant location to do some corn husking Friday afternoon when residents and staff completed this task while remi- niscing about canning and preserving in years past. A group of eight residents attended Breakfast Group Tuesday morning dining on eggs made to order, sausages, toast and fruit along with juice, coffee and tea. Lively conversation about current events, the Olympics and weather ensued, inter- rupted only by requests to pass the toast. Rev. Trembulak of Dashwood Lutheran Church led worship in the afternoon with Belva Fuss as volunteer pianist. Marg Cole presided over three tables of euchre competition Wednesday after- noon. Residents continue to look forward to this regular weekly program. Paula Townsend and her Pet Therapy dog, Popcorn, made their rounds Wednesday morning. Popcorn is a tiny Maltese with a big personality and is loved by residents. Friendship Friday program with Joyce Pepper entertaining on piano was well attended. Residents sang along with many of the old songs. Coming Events Aug. 26: 6 p.m. Senior Diners; 7 p.m. Birthday Party with John and Geneva Heaman. Sept. 7: 9 a.m. Volunteer Auxiliary Meeting.
