Her impact is felt throughout the community, where she serves as a friend and confidante to many of her fellow residents. “I sit and talk to them nicely,” Betty says of her interactions with those who might be feeling lonely or homesick. “I try to give them advice on activities they may be interested in. I let them know I am always here for them and give them a hug.” Her advice to new residents is simple yet profound: “Get involved with activities that interest you. I like to sit on the front porch and enjoy the fresh air.” This blend of gentle encouragement and leading by example has helped countless new residents find their place at Cedarhurst.
