2008 Address and Phone Directory
As many of you
already know this is
the time of year
that I put together
the annual "Phone
and Address
Directory". If any
of you would like to
update your picture
please send a new
one to me by March
1st. Also if there
are any changes or
corrections that you
would like me to be
aware of please let
me know as soon as
possible.
Some of you have
been shy about
sharing a photo for
the directory but
please reconsider
this year as it is
wonderful for
everyone who lives
in Horizon Villages
to be able to
identify their
neighbors. This
helps to encourage a
strong sense of
community that we
all want to create.
You may email a
picture to me at
ccima@aol.com or you
can send me one via
regular mail and I
will scan it into
the directory. Also
if you have any
photos of your
residence such as
your summer flowers,
interior decorating
anything that you
would like to share
I would love to
include them in the
directory.
Thanks for your
participation.

Need Some Help?
Betty Buck
Many people are now
remaining in their
homes at Horizon
Villages longer than
ever before and
choosing help at
home instead of
moving to an
assisted living
facility.
I am getting many
requests for names
of individuals that
can provide help to
some of our older
residents.
Betty Buck is a very
experienced woman
who began her work
in nursing homes and
has for 20 years
been associated with
some of the top home
health services in
the county.
I have personal
experience with
Betty as she was a
caregiver for my
late husband and has
worked for many
residents of Horizon
Villages over the
years. Betty is
currently taking
residents on errands
and grocery
shopping, serving as
a companion and
assisting with
personal care and
bathing.
If you would like to
be put in contact
with Betty please
call me at the
office 257-6059.
Katie Gaffney
In addition to help
with personal care I
have been getting
requests for help
with cleaning. Katie
is an outstanding
young woman that is
currently working
for many residents
of Horizon Villages
including me. Katie
is extremely hard
working, reliable
and is a pleasure to
be around. You could
not do any better
than Katie. If you
would like Katies
number again just
call me at 257-6059

Have we missed something?
Although we work
hard everyday to
give you the level
of service that you
deserve we know that
it is possible that
we may have missed
something, forgotten
something, or did
something that we
shouldn't have done!
This is your chance
to tell us what you
think. Please leave
any comments or
suggestions in the
black box to the
right of the front
door of the office,
Feel free to sign
them or leave them

way the important
thing is that we get
the message,

Lawn Care 
Although we have
been fortunate each
Spring to have Bill
Mellinger return to
do an outstanding
job on our lawns
this year Bill will
be working at a golf
course in Arizona.
Now how can we
compete with that?
So we will be
interviewing for a
new lawn person this
year. We wish Bill
the very best in his
new position.

remember Harold
Wheat. Harold
held Norm's

Horizon Villages
