The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. -Helen Keller

And now, a note from Norwood Life Society CEO, Mike Toohey

Dear Friends,

Every morning, when I walk into Norwood Crossing, I am immediately struck by a certain intangible feeling. Perhaps it is the cheerful hellos from the staff, or seeing newly created artwork on the walls, or the comforting aroma of bacon and eggs mingling with the laughter of the residents in Riley's as they sit and finish their morning breakfast.

There's an energy in the air that can't be described, but must be felt. Our heart-felt commitment to our seniors makes all the difference.

Our dedicated staff members work tirelessly to make sure that our building is clean and comfortable, that our Norwood Crossing residents receive proper medical care, that our Senior Network clients receive delicious, hot meals delivered by friendly volunteers, and that our Senior Center has a full schedule of fun and interesting activities.

The more support we receive from our Norwood family, the more we can do. Over the past few years, our donors helped us create the Ohrstrom Norwegian Heritage Hall, the History Wall, and the beautiful new Wellness Center. But we also need new heating and air-conditioning units in the Nursing Building, a new car for Seniors Network transportation needs, replacements for aging kitchen equipment, a new elevator in the Mulligan Lobby, and the list goes on.

Please consider a gift to Norwood Life Care Foundation this holiday season. We will gratefully use your contribution to keep the Norwood spirit alive, and to help all the seniors we serve enjoy comfort and care throughout the year.

Sincerely,

Michael D. Toohey
Chief Executive Officer
Norwood Life Society
