Behind the Scenes at Cohen Florence Levine Estates and Florence & Chafetz

The past few months have been chock full of holiday festivities and celebrations, with beautiful decorations, fun activities, delicious food, and a great deal of laughter. One highlight stood out: the holiday dessert competition. Our residents made excellent judges! Take a look at the photos elsewhere in this newsletter.

In celebration of Thanksgiving, Florence & Chafetz residents and families got together for a “Be Thankful Event” the week before Thanksgiving. The agenda included games and treats for residents and families. It was the perfect activity to kick off the holiday season.

Donkeys, dogs of all sizes, mini horses, goats, and chickens greeted residents on their visit to Goldy’s Farm in Ipswich. Founded and run by Carlene White, who is in her 80’s and is still involved in the day-to-day activities. The farm has evolved and thrived for over 50 years.

The holiday lights tour was enjoyed by residents and staff as they toured the area to see a medley of colorful and creative lighting displays in the area. Also on the agenda: Hanukah parties, games, arts and craft projects, musical entertainment and a fabulous New Year’s Eve concert.

Congratulations are in order to Lucian Francois, who was named the December Employee of the Month. Lucian cooks amazing dishes for our residents. Thank you, Lucian, for all that you do!

As we ring in 2024, we are looking forward to a busy and productive January. First up: a fun themed movie lunch. Italian food will be served as we watch Under the Tuscan Sun, the popular romantic comedy-drama film written, produced, and directed by Audrey Wells and starring Diane Lane. It’s a great way to take a trip to Italy in the comfort of our home!

Wishing everyone a very happy and healthy 2024!
