GENEROSITY ABOUNDS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Thanks to the generous heart of Wrentham resident Kim Devolve, Pond Home residents and staff are enjoying a Dickens Village winter scene. Kim has collected the Dickens Village pieces for years, but has not displayed them for the last few years at her home. She reached out to Pond Home with an email shortly after Thanksgiving. The email’s subject line was ‘Can I help bring the Christmas Spirit to Pond Home?’

She got an enthusiastic response from Pond Home’s Administrator Becky Annis and Activity Director Barbara Larsen. They agreed the built in benches on the three season porch at Pond Home would be a great location to display the large collection.

Kim and her husband Fred took a day off from work and set the whole thing up one recent afternoon. While the Devolves worked Pond Home residents stepped in and out of the porch
admiring the beauty of the display and all the detail in each piece.

“We have a big beautiful house and we love to decorate for the holidays. This collection adds a scene that is both peaceful and interesting to look at, with something new to see each time you look”, said Activity Director Barbara Larsen, “I’m so glad Kim thought of Pond Home.”

Pond Home offers Residential Care and Supportive Nursing Care in a beautifully maintained colonial home on Route 140 in Wrentham, providing all meals and 24 hour nursing care. It is
managed by Rogerson Communities, a Boston based non-profit recognized as a leader in the management and development of elder housing and services. To learn more about Pond Home contact Becky Annis at 508-384-3531, ext. 225 or visit www.pondhome.org .
