ON THE PINECONE COVER

Summer is officially here! Although it sneaked in towards the end of June, the unofficial hotter, dryer weather arrived sometime during spring. Luckily for us all, our large trees and park like acreage, provides us with plenty of areas where we can step outside to stroll under the shade of numerous majestic trees. This summer will of course be different during the current Coivd-19 pandemic, but try not to let the hotter temperature nor the daily news bring you down.

The current Covid-19 crisis continues to have a significant impact not only on visits with your families, but also on unemployment, the economy and people’s lives in general. Remember in every crisis, doubt or confusion – it is important to take the higher path. The path of compassion, courage, understanding and love for one another.

This July, when we gather to celebrate the birth of our nation, we will also be ending

The 4th of July—also known as Independence Day—has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941, but the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back to the 18th century and the American Revolution. On July 2nd, 1776, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later delegates from the 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 to the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues.

Independence means being able to take care of your own needs and to make and assume responsibility for your decisions while considering both the people around you and your environment.

Living in a community like Kirby Pines, however, we do depend on people. We depend on friends, family and staff for entertainment, companionship and care. But also, as a community where

a month of mourning in recognition of all we have lost during this pandemic. However, we must also remember the American patriots of past centuries, who gave their lives so that we could enjoy the fruits of a better country. This July, join me in saluting all past, current and future Americans as we bask in the warmth of their actions and the season. Yes, summer is officially here.

we look out for one another. Even in the hardest of times we want everyone at Kirby Pines to feel safe, happy and loved.

Our front cover features Dr. Charles Parrott, the infamous leader of our Annual 4th of July Parade, cruising in his red, white and blue. And though we must practice safe distancing this year with no parade, we still have reason to celebrate our incredible community. Our back cover reflects just how much we all consider the people around us and our safe, happy and loving environment. The photos are from past parades, but remind us of how strong we are as a whole. God Bless America!

welcome to

3535 Kirby Road • Memphis, TN 38115

Charles and Paula Hanson moved to Kirby Pines from their previous home in Germantown. Charles, better known as Chuck, and Paula will celebrate their 58th anniversary in August. They have two sons, Chris and Craig. They are also the proud grandparents of three granddaughters.

Chuck went to Freed Hardeman and the University of Mississippi, graduating with B.S. in chemistry. After graduation, he went to work at Velsicol Chemical Corporation where he worked 46 years before retiring in 2008. He was Vice-President of Environment, which included health and safety as well as product safety. Paula went to Freed Hardeman and the University of Memphis, majoring in education. She was a teacher with the Shelby County Schools and Harding Academy for 13 years.

Chuck served as President of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and was an expert to the United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP).

With all of their interests, Chuck and Paula are enjoying their retirement. Chuck enjoys boating, flying, woodworking and metal working, sewing and electronics. Paula stays busy reading, flower gardening, ceramics, flower arranging and Mexican Train. She also collects rabbits and pottery. You will often find them working out at the Germantown Gym. They have worked 38 years with programs for the Southeast Asians.

The Hansons have traveled the world extensively. Some of their destinations include the eastern U.S.A., Italy, China, Mexico, England and many others.

We welcome Chuck and Paula to our community, with their many talents and assets, they will soon be involved in our Life Enhancement programs. We are so happy they chose Kirby Pines for their new life adventure.

Chuck & Pau la HansonJohn & Melody Ch ip ley

Just as Kirby Pines shut things down due to the pandemic, we welcomed John and Melody Chipley with their dog, George. They are enjoying their new home but are looking forward to our returning to the normal life here at Kirby Pines. The Chipleys moved here from their previous home in Germantown where they celebrated their Golden Anniversary in February. They have 2 sons and 2 grandchildren.

John went to the University of North Carolina and Union University where he studied business and education. He worked in the business world and also was a teacher before retiring. Melody went to the University of Hartford and Kings College, after school she worked as a secretary and as an administrative assistant at several law firms.

For enjoyment, John enjoys the piano and writing. Melody stays busy quilting, knitting, reading and watercolor painting. Collecting cars is a hobby of Johns and Melody collects antique teacups and cream pitchers.

John says his friends describe him as a “little outside the box.” We might want to meet John just to find out the meaning of this description. Melody likes to walk and does chair exercising. She also gets a lot of exercise walking their pet, George.

Becoming a teacher is John’s proudest accomplishment and Melody does not sell her quilts but they are a gift of love to her friends and family.

You’ll want to make friends with our new neighbors whenever you’re out and about. Introduce them to the many different enhancement activities we have here at Kirby Pines. They are a fit for our community and we are very happy to welcome them to their new home.

Have you noticed lately that as the Stay In Place orders lag on and the summer days begin to heat up that you are spending more time on the couch or in your chair enjoying the air condi-tioning? Have you ever wondered why exercise has to be so exerting or sweaty? Exercise may be on the bottom of your to do list, if it makes the list at all. In this health column written by Doctor K (Komaroff), he gave several good exercises for a “couch potato.” His information was from a physical therapist Kailyn Collins who gave him these suggestions:

While lying flat on your back on the couch or bed, lift one leg 8-12 timesconcentrating on using your thigh muscles. Repeat with the other leg.

Turn to your side and lift your leg up 8-12 times using your thigh muscles(imagine a half “Jumping Jack”). Roll to the other side and repeat.

Lying on your back again, lift both legs while you tighten your stomach muscles.Hold for ten seconds. Don’t forget to breathe.

Relax for 10 seconds and repeat every commercial break.

Sitting upright with your feet flat on the floor, practice standing up. Repeat 10 times.Another variation is to almost stand just raising your bottom off the chair and sit again.

Make sure your chair is sturdy and not a rocker.This exercise can be repeated in reverse where you begin standing and squat

like you are almost sitting and repeat 10 times. When you are ready to sitmake sure your chair is under your bottom (gently sit without a plop).

Move your wrists by rotating; waving up and down; Open and close your fists;Twiddle your thumbs and each finger one at a time.

Rotate your ankles and flex each foot.

Shoulder rolls; Raise one arm and then the other;Extend arms out to the side to expand chest and take a deep breath.

These are just a few simple exercises that you can do while sitting on the couch. If you take the dare and give these a try, you may be pleasantly surprised that energy, strength, and balance will improve. If you like these, I have many more

exercises you may find useful. Check out the Sit and Stand Exercise class at 11:00 Live streaming on

Channel 10 on Tuesdays and Thursdays or the Yoga class on Mondays and

Wednesdays at 12:45 on channel 10.

Get out of your“Lazy Boy.”

I dare you.

HYDRATEDKeep i ng

As the July month comes our way so will the hot and humid weather. It is extremely crucial to be safe and maintain your hydration levels. Hydration is maintaining a proper balance throughout the body. Water makes up 75% of the human body and can be extracted in many various ways. If you don’t replace the water that you have lost dehydration is likely to occur. Some warning signs to be cautious of when becoming dehydrated are dry mouth, extreme thirst, headache, confusion, and dizziness. Don’t wait until you notice the symptoms before taking action.

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help prevent dehydration. It has been recommended to consume 6-8 glasses of water a day. Drinking water alone is not the only way to achieve proper hydration. There are many different types of fruits and vegetables which have an adequate amount of water content. Watermelon has 90% water, which ranks as one of the highest, but oranges, melons, and grapefruit are also great contenders. Spinach, celery and broccoli are also good substitutes for vegetables.

Tips for Staying Hydrated:• Drink plenty of liquids• Watch the heat index• Wear appropriate clothing• Have a glass of water with each meal• Avoid caffeinated drinks• Urine color should be a pale yellow

All classes have changed or havebeen postponed until further notice.

Please practice safe distancingwhen exercising at all times.

Southland Mall was built for them! There was always a yard full of children playing”. Her husband Ralph traveled in his work but found time to build a water fountain for them. Rose and her husband were active in the National Iris Society and were recognized for their hybridized irises. Their garden was so outstanding that visitors from the National Iris Society visited by busloads when the convention was in Memphis. They also raised and showed German Shepherd dogs. The iris gardens and the dog shows were always a family endeavor. They required “lots of hard work but were also lots of fun”.

The family moved to Arlington, Texas, for a few years and was there when President Kennedy was killed. They also lived outside Batesville, Mississippi at one time and enjoyed the country living. There, their iris garden was also a tour site for the Iris Society. However, collectively, the family lived in Memphis the majority of time. One of the most favorite things for the family to do while living in Memphis was to fish in Sardis Lake.

Rose moved to Kirby Pines in 2010, following the death of her husband Ralph in 2009. Rose said that on her first visit she knew that Kirby was her new home. The first thing Rose appreciated at Kirby Pines was the peace and quiet after a tumultuous period of medical emergencies with her husband’s illness. She says of Kirby Pines, “I love the staff and there is always something to do”.

Music has always been important to Rose. She took piano lessons for several years and has shared her talent by playing for Vespers and piano duets on several occasions. Also, since moving to Kirby Pines, Rose has been a member of the singing group, The Entertainers. She has this to say about the experience: “The Entertainers have been an important part of my life here. The hard work and love of music by this group always results in a good program. There is nothing like the anticipation as the curtain opens and you see the large, appreciative audience waiting.

Soon after moving to Kirby, Rose was introduced to a card game “Joker”. Thus began weekly meetings “with a great group of people and which took place no matter what!” Rose also enjoys Bingo, and other card games, reading and watching her favorite soap operas and Masterpiece Theater on WKNO.

Rose feels fortunate to have among her family, three grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Rose has always been active in the Methodist Church, formerly involved in the Women’s Missionary Circle and teaching young people. She is currently a member of Emmanuel Methodist Church but considers Chaplain Don and Cheryl Johnson’s ministry at Kirby Pines “close to my heart”.

To know Rose Strange is to love her. The only unkind thing to be said of her is that she, reportedly, can “be quite mean” when playing cards! When asked what the future holds for her, she replied, “I want to continue to enjoy my friends and the fun I have at Kirby Pines, but I also have a date with DeDe Scott to go fishing when we meet in Heaven”. Way to plan, Rose!

An unknown author has said, “Someone with inner beauty will live forever, like the essence of a rose”.


Wrtten by Joan Dodson, Resident, Kirby Pines

Wedding Day February 1949

The word “rose” has several meanings. It is often used as a name in a song or a poem, or, a category of flower. Generally, when we hear the name, we think of something pretty, sweet, or, romantic. To know Rose Strange is to sense the essence of sweetness, kindness and beauty of soul. No doubt her happy childhood, successful marriage of 60 years and the rearing of three wonderful children defined “the Rose” we know today-“Our Rose of Kirby Pines”.

Rose Strange (nee Scott) was born at Methodist Hospital on November 15, 1928 and spent most of her life in Memphis. The family moved to Marked Tree, Arkansas, when Rose was in the second grade and lived there for 6-7 years. Small town living and school life was different but very enjoyable. Rose sums up her childhood this way: “I had a wonderful family with a great sister and brother and a Mom and Dad who loved each other for 60 years. Our family life was always peaceful, fun and loving.

At age 5, Rose was diagnosed with polio and the family was quarantined for a period of time. Fortunately, Rose had the attention of the well respected pediatrician, Dr. Tom Mitchell, who came to their home and taught her father how to exercise and massage the affected leg. Rose

recovered fully after her father dutifully followed the instructions.

Rose graduated from Bellevue Jr. High and Central High School, then enrolled at Memphis State University. There, during her sophomore year, she met her future husband, Ralph Strange. They were married on February 25, 1949. Their first child, Diane, was followed by another daughter, Julie and a son, Ralph III. The family lived in Whitehaven for many years and according to Rose, “the children seemed to think that

Covid-19 prevention at Kirby Pines has kept our residents and staff healthy.As an additional protective measure, Kirby Pines recently purchased several Konica Mobotix M16 thermal cameras. These double vision thermal and color lens scanners make it possible to detect a person's temperature, raise an alarm on a remote observer station and provide a color image making it possible to identify the person with the increased body tem-perature immediately. The scanners offer live monitoring on a PC monitor with automatic alarm reporting and alert from a distance, defined by temperature limits or temperature ranges.

Other than temperature reading, Kirby Pines can use the camera as a surveillance solution and record the number of people passing through a specific zone and peri-od. This allows management to perform analysis based on our desire to maintain a safe community for our residents and their families.

These cameras have been installed in two areas of the community. The first area is located in the hallway as individuals enter the main dining areas. The second camera is located near the time clock as team members clock in for their respec-tive shifts. Kirby Pines management feels these cameras will be extremely beneficial in a number of ways to provide a safe community for our residents beyond the COVID-19 pandemic recovering efforts.

"I enjoy my work with homeless people who are less fortunate. I am grateful to give to others. t is the mission God has given me". - Crystal Shoemaker

The new distance, set to please Her Highness, was measured to be exactly twenty-six miles, 385 yards. This became the standard distance for all marathons, even to this day.” Steve Lawson, Men Who Win, (pp, 150-151)

What can we learn from this point in history?

Victories can be won by smaller forces over much larger ones. Great distance may lie between the battle and home. Getting the message of success to those who need to hear it is a challenge that may seem impossible.

Sometimes we are called to travel a greater distance that we’ve gone before. We may have to do this in dark hours beyond normal. We can’t just start…we must stretch to the limit. The finish line must be reached. Why do we obediently follow orders? It is because we have a message to deliver. This may be very costly, but everything worthwhile always is.

At times the rules are changed. The finish line is moved, either arbitrarily or selfishly. We may be forced to go far beyond what was originally planned. But our reach must always exceed our grasp.

II Timothy 2:5 says “…if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.” It’s that way in every area of life. Whether we like the rules or not we must faithfully follow them.

Could we become a Pheidippedes today? Yes! The world needs and is still looking for a hero. Let’s not keep it waiting!

Till next time, Don Johnson, KP Chaplain

WE STILL NEED HEROES

Chaplain’s COrner


“The year was 490 B.C. On the open plains near the small town of Marathon, the ancient Greeks met the invading Persian army in a strategic battle. Against impossible odds, the Greeks charged into the Persian camp, catching their enemy by surprise, and defeated the Persians, thus saving the Greek Empire from sure defeat.

A Greek soldier—Pheidippedes—was then dispatched to run to headquarters in Athens, twenty-two miles away, with the good news of victory. With determination and resolve, Pheidippedes ran through the night all the way from Marathon to Athens.

Upon entering the city of Athens, he sprinted to his superiors. ‘Rejoice,’ Pheidippedes gasped, ‘we have conquered!’ As he delivered the message, he fell to the ground. Dead.

Pheidippedes became a Greek hero. A symbol of endurance and determination. As a tribute to this faithful soldier who ran so bravely through the night, the ‘matathon’ race was born. Runners in the Greek Empire would soon attempt to duplicate his courageous feat, calling up the same endurance.

The precise distance of the marathon was not fixed until recently. The distance Pheidippedes ran from Marathon to Athens was slightly more than twenty-two miles. In 1908 the Olympics were held in London, and the marathon was extended to twenty-six miles, 385 yards. Why such an unusual distance? That year, the race would begin at Windsor Castle and end at the new White City Stadium because an English princess wanted to watch the start of the race from her castle and then view the finish from her seat in the stadium. To meet the request of royalty the race would have to be extended. And it was.”
