It’s All in the Hands

by

Our Sunset Home activities team created an incredible photo project of our residents’ hands holding something special to them — a Bible, paintbrushes, an American flag, a bingo card — you name it!

For Grandparent’s Day, these photos were displayed in our halls so everyone could see them, but these photos aren’t just meant for us to enjoy. These photos have proved to be meaningful for those our residents care about the most: their family.

“For the residents it is a special gift to give to loved ones and for the families it is a gift to have for a lifetime,” said Activities Director Amy Arthur. “Consider all those hands have done throughout our lives!”

Jamie Jones-Middleton, grandaughter of longtime nurse and Sunset resident Faye Wallace, let us know how much the photo of her grandmother holding a stethoscope meant to her family, especially after she passed.

“Y’all have no idea how much that means to all of us. That photo is priceless. There aren’t enough words. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
