The Best Hot Dog!
Dorothy Brandle, a resident of Fellowship Village, loves when
the retirement community holds its annual Grandparents' Day
Celebration. Brandle spent her day with the best seat in the
house: watching the trains, the people, the dancing, the pony
rides, and she was out of the sun! |
