Older Americans Month May 2009 Springfield Library PA Veterans Museum and ntbf


May is Older Americans Month. A month that we could honor those who have served our country in previous times of war and peace especially our Older American Veterans who served during WWII, Korean and even Vietnam.
May is also a month that we could honor our Older Americans by doing an act of kindness for an elderly neighbor, relative or friend. Some things like bringing the trash cans to the curb or up from the curb to bigger things like cutting grass or painting for a senior could really make the difference in the life of an elderly person and honor him or her during the month of May.
To honor the month of May, Older Americans Month, Comfort Keepers and Baskets by Donna decorated the window at the local library in Springfield, PA with items from the PA Veteran’s Museum in Media, information on Not-To-Be-Forgotten Foundation ntbf and several antiques to remind our Older Americans of things they enjoyed when they were young. Take a look at the picture above of the window display and if you are in the Springfield PA area, stop in the library and see it in person. It is really terrific!
