Honoring Jenny Patterson, a CNA

Our Mother, Violet was a resident at The Villas from March 2016 until her passing on January 16, 2026. Our sister, Beverly has also been a resident since June 2024. Both have received excellent care from staff members, but Jenny is one who stands out. I've never seen her in a bad mood, always with a smile on her face. She exudes a caring, compassionate, loving way with residents and family members alike. She goes above and beyond what one might expect from a staff member. Jenny seems to meet each person where they are, joking with them, hugging them and is genuinely invested in each of her residents. Any care facility should be thankful for people like Jenny and my family is graetful she is part of St Paul's.

Honoring Sheila Wasser, a Social Services

As a family, we appreciate Sheila and her caring ways. She listens attentively and shows genuine concern in difficult situations such as Mom’s recent hospitalizations. Thanks to you, Sheila, for the way you combine professionalism and loving concern.”

Honoring Mike Allen, a Director of Life Enrichment at The Villas

Mike listened carefully when, as family members, we asked if an improvement could be made to include Sunday afternoon hymns on channel 1851, using sites that provide familiar hymns with music. This has become a very positive time of worship and sing-along for my aging mom, whose Love Language has always been music. I have shared the new program with several folks on my mom’s floor, and they are also enjoying and appreciating Mike's responsive approach to a family’s/resident's request.

Honoring Kim Phillips, a Personal Care Attendant

Kim is a pleasure to see on weekends in Jones Serenity Circle. She always knows what's going on with Mom and is quick to report it when I visit. As the number of residents continues to grow, I'm sure the demands do also, but you wouldn't know it by Kim's sunny attitude.
