Kendal's Centenarians

One hundred 2.jpg

Far be it for a website editor to make any kind of a scientific proclamation, but I think that many of our residents feel that the quality of life at Kendal adds to its longevity. If you have doubts, read on.

Kendal’s Group of Centenarians grew this past week when Myron Gordon turned 100, joining Marjorie O’Brien, Clara Eldridge, Betty Russell, Jean MacIntosh, and Bill Rakower. We congratulate them all and look forward to adding Una Olaksen to the list in June.

Myron Gordon on the great day wrote, “One Hundred Years and Beyond.” On April 12, 2020 I reached the summit of this hill of years. At this height it almost seems fictional. The most recent five years were spent on the life-giving path of Kendal. At this stage I can stop counting the steps and days but rather view each one as a bonus. The birthday celebration started in the morning when I heard people cheering and clanging pots from adjacent balconies. During the day I received messages including emails, greeting cards and phone calls of all sorts. I deeply thank all of you at Kendal who contacted me, and hope we can soon be together after this imposed isolation. Love and regards from Jetta who successfully got through this storm of affection. Myron Gordon, K.C. (Kendal Centenarian).

All of us at Kendal wish Myron many more years of health and friendship.
