Residents Share Collections and Hobbies
ne of the delightful aspects of living in a retirement community is
having the opportunity to meet
other residents and learn about their interests and talents. Finding shared hobbies
often leads to new friendships. Both Friends
Homes at Guilford and Friends Homes West
encourage residents to share their hobbies for
the enjoyment of residents and staff alike.
On January 29th, Friends Homes West
held an event named “Collectomania” in
the Living Room. Residents were given the
opportunity to have a table and display
their collections and hobbies for others
to enjoy. Displays ranged from miniature
tea sets and hand-made wooden crafts
and boxes to evening bags, bird figurines,
cranberry glass, Presidential Christmas ornaments, carnival chalkware, hooked rugs
and license plates. Libby Wood, Director
of Special Services, said the event was fun
for both residents and staff and a great way
to involve new residents.
Friends Homes at Guilford has an ongoing way of sharing collections. In the
hallway of Woolman is a display cabinet
where each month either a collection or
a seasonal display is featured. Director of
Special Services, Sheila Dunning, recalls
that during the past year, there have been
displays of elephants, miniature sewing
machines, hand-painted china, hand-made
beaded Chrismons, hand-made dolls and
matchbooks just to name a few. Other
popular displays have been vintage Easter
bonnets and place settings of china.

under plastic protective sheets in 18 large
three-ring notebooks. The notebooks are
organized by states; however, Greensboro
warrants its own notebook since so many
of the matchbooks are from here. Glancing through the pages of the Greensboro
notebook is a real walk through history,
seeing names of companies that no longer
exist but once were thriving businesses.
Taylor says his oldest matchbook dates
to the 1930s when Greensboro only had
four-digit phone numbers. This Greensboro native started his collection when he
was on his way walking to Peck Elementary School. “I remember one day looking
down and finding some money on the
ground. The next day, I was looking down
again and didn’t find any money but did
find a matchbook and thought that would
be fun to collect. Never would I have
imagined the collection would grow to this
size. Now, it is virtually impossible to find
any matchbooks. I am always looking in
antique stores and have even bought some
collections on Ebay. I’ve been in touch with
other collectors via the internet and have
lots of matchbooks ready to trade.”
License Plates
Jimmy Truitt, a resident of Friends
Homes West for 18 years, remembers
exactly how he happened to start his
license plate collection. He says that in
1950 or ’51, the State of North Carolina
started an automobile inspection program

over the world making his collection one
of the largest in North Carolina. He has

From the CEO, Wilson Sheldon
The spirit of
caring is more
than a pleasant descriptive
phrase for the
staff at Friends
Homes. It is a
driving force that
is never more evident than during emergencies or times
of extreme conditions. During the last
two months, the weather has provided
more of these extreme conditions than
we ever hope to see because we have
more than 600 residents on our two
campuses who depend on us to provide services on icy, snowy days just
as on sunny, warm days. During this
winter’s recurrent storms, our employees responded with overwhelming
enthusiasm to make sure that they were
here and available to see that all those
necessary jobs were done. Many packed
their bags and stayed on site, sleeping
on cots or sofas or inflatable mattresses
for two nights to be sure they could be
at work on time. They approached this
challenge as an adventure, and their
positive and caring attitude established
an esprit de corps among those here
to work.
Such commitment does not happen overnight. It is developed as staff
work together developing relationships,
establishing trust and forming bonds
with our residents. Each member of
the Friends Homes’ staff is willing to
do whatever needs to be done. Their
dedication is strengthened by the recognition by leadership of the importance
of all staff and of each individual’s important role in the smooth operation
of Friends Homes.
I would like to thank each member
of our staff as well as all our wonderful and appreciative residents for their
patience and extra efforts to keep things
running smoothly in trying times.
You all help to make Friends Homes
a community where we enjoy working
and living.
Pergola Dedicated to Pete and Walt Wilson
Ermine “Pete” and Walt Wilson left an
indelible mark on the grounds of Friends
Homes West, and the Landscaping Committee has recognized their outstanding
contributions by dedicating a pergola in
their honor. The wooden pergola was
constructed by the Maintenance Department and is a focal point in the small
courtyard of Friends Homes West.
The Wilsons moved to Friends
Homes West in 1995, and Pete passed
away in 2012. After Pete’s death, Walt
relocated to California to be near his
daughter. Gardening had always been a
passion for Pete and Walt and when they
moved to Friends Homes West, they put
their passion and their talents to work.
Together they designed and landscaped
the hillside between the 1000 and 2000
buildings. They also planted the garden
in front of the 2000 building putting
in shrubbery, perennials and annuals.
They worked tirelessly and dedicated
themselves to beautifying the entrance of
Friends Homes West for the enjoyment
of residents and visitors alike.
Pete served on the Landscaping and
Grounds Committee for many years and
she used to say, “We make a good team

because I visualize what can be done, and
Walt does it.” Together they transformed
much of the grounds of Friends Homes
West and created a legacy which has been
permanently recognized.
Pete and Walt Wilson’s daughter,
Teri Prather, said, “Gardening brought
so much joy to my mom and dad and
so did their community of friends at
Friends Homes West. My dad and I
are humbled by this wonderful tribute to them. Please let everyone know
how honored my family is that Friends
Homes would choose to remember Pete
and Walt in such a perfect way. I hope
the pergola brings much joy and pleasure
to everyone at Friends Homes West for
many, many years.”
Resident Profile: Bob Winsor of Friends Homes West
With characteristic modesty, Bob
Winsor says, “I guess math is my specialty but music has always been my
pastime.” Residents and staff of Friends
Homes West agree that Bob is gifted in
many areas, and he willingly shares his
talents both within Friends Homes West
and in the larger community.
Bob grew up in Chapel Hill where
his father was a professor in the Math
Department at UNC-CH and his mother
taught piano in the home. His love of music started with overhearing his mother
teaching her students. Recognizing Bob’s
talent, his mother taught him for several
years and then by the time he was nine or
ten, he started taking piano lessons from
faculty members in the music department
at UNC. Throughout high school, he
continued piano, played the clarinet in
the school band and was in the chorus.
At Guilford College, Bob continued
with piano lessons and was a member of
the choir. He graduated with a degree
in math and contemplated graduate
school; however, he decided even though
Bob Winsor
he came from a family of teachers, he’d
prefer a business career. In 1961, Bob
went to work with Jefferson-Pilot as an
actuary and enjoyed a 47-year career with
the company retiring in 2008. In the
early days of his employment, he took
a six-month leave of absence for active
duty with the Army Reserves and subse-
quently completed his six-year military
obligation in the Reserves after returning
to Jefferson.
Throughout his career, Bob was engaged with music in a variety of ways. He
sang in the choir at First Friends Meeting,
and sang with the Don Trexler singers
as well as being accompanist for the
Greensboro Oratorio singers. Utilizing
his math and musical talents provided a
good balance in his life and since moving
to Friends Homes West five years ago,
he has continued singing in his church
choir and being the accompanist for the
Greensboro Oratorio Singers.
In addition to his community activities, Bob is an active participant within
Friends Homes West. He is treasurer of
the Resident’s Council, serves on the
Library and Vespers Committee, and is
the accompanist for the Friendly Singers.
“I’m as busy as I was when I was working, and I’m very happy here. My parents
lived at Friends Homes at Guilford so
I always planned to come to Friends
Homes.”
Resident Profile: Dolores Parker of Friends Homes at Guilford
Dolores Parker says, “It’s a real blessing
to be living here.” She and her husband,
Doug, moved to Friends Homes at Guilford in 2007 and for the past year, Doug
has been living in Whittier Nursing
Center. “The care is wonderful,” she says.
“You couldn’t ask for anything better.”
Dolores is a native of Dayton, Ohio
which is where she met Doug who was
the son of Quaker missionaries. She and
Doug both taught high school math in
Dayton. When they relocated to West
Chester, PA, Dolores began working with
the U.S. Pony Clubs, an organization
with 600 clubs around the country whose
mission is to promote riding for children.
When the Pony Club national headquarters moved to Lexington, KY, the Parkers
relocated their family. After an 18-year
career, Dolores retired. The Parkers’ family includes a son and a daughter and it
is through their daughter, Debbie, that
Dolores Parker
the Parkers connected with Greensboro.
Debbie graduated from Guilford College and while she was in school, she met
Clarence and Helen Parker at Friendship Friends Meeting. The Greensboro
Parkers and her parents, although not
related, became close friends. Clarence
and Helen moved to Friends Homes at
Guilford many years ago and because of
them, Dolores and Doug became interested in Friends Homes at Guilford. In
1999, the Parkers moved from Kentucky
to Greensboro and here Dolores worked
for 10 years as the office manager at First
Friends Meeting.
An energetic participant in activities at Friends Homes, Dolores is a
floor chairman; serves on the Vespers
Committee;works in the Friendly Shop
and catalogues the fiction books for the
Library Committee. She goes regularly to
Friends Homes West for water exercise,
participates in the Bell Ringers and sings
in the choir at First Friends. Dolores says,
“Here, it’s your own fault if you don’t
get involved because there are plenty of
activities. It’s a lot of fun working with
volunteers, and there are so many interesting people. We definitely made the
right decision to move here.”

Weather Presents
Challenges
For the staffs of both communities,
the challenges of snow and ice necessitate planning ahead and being flexible. When the staff sees the forecast
of bad weather coming, like the snow
storm we had in mid-February, they
make arrangements for staff members
to stay overnight. Donna Sprinkle,
Administrator of Friends Homes
West, said, “We have a number of
cots and inflatable mattresses and use
our guest apartments and even offices
for temporary accommodations. We
had members of the nursing staff,
maintenance and dietary departments spend the night. We all pitched
in to do whatever was necessary, and
everyone worked together.”
Tim Jackson, Administrator of
Friends Homes at Guilford, said,
“We have a plan in place. The staff
knows we will offer them accommodations for staying overnight
so that we can meet the residents’
needs. Some of the administrative
staff helped with food service, and
everyone worked together and supported each other. We were most appreciative that on February 18th we
received a letter signed by the nine
members of the Residents’ Association Board of Directors expressing
their thanks to the management and
staff for excellent service cheerfully
provided under trying circumstances. The letter concluded by saying
‘The security provided to all of us is
a major reason we selected Friends
Homes at Guilford to be our retirement home. Please share our grateful
thanks to your associates’.”

Bill Allred Volunteers with the Bell Ringers
Bill Allred loves music,
and he willingly shares
his love of music with
the residents of Friends
Homes at Guilford. For
the past 20 years, Bill has
volunteered as the director of The Bell Ringers,
a hand bell choir composed of residents who
range in age from nearly
80 to almost 100. In addition to playing music,

and Jimmy’s grandfather asked him
to take his “T” Model Ford to be inspected. Jimmy says when he returned
with the car, his grandfather was thrilled
the car had passed inspection and wanted
to pay Jimmy for taking it.
When his grandfather opened the
garage for the Model T to go back in,
Jimmy spotted a wall of North Carolina
license plates. “I told my grandfather that
I didn’t want any payment but would he
leave me those license plates in his will?
He agreed and two years later when he
passed away, I inherited the collection.”
Jimmy says, “The oldest plate dates to
1913 and there is one for every year up
through 1952. All of the plates were
used on my grandfather’s Ford cars here
in Greensboro. I then started adding my
plates from 1953 to 1975, and since then
the commercial plates that were used on
our company’s trucks.”
Having the license plates sparked
Jimmy’s curiosity, and he has researched
the history of license plates which goes
back to 1901 when New York issued a
little aluminum disc about the size of a
half-dollar. Jimmy traced the evolution
of plates, specifically in North Carolina,
and the State has verified Jimmy’s collection is more complete than theirs. He
gave a presentation on license plates to
his Kiwanis Club and is happy to share
his knowledge.
Tapestry Hooked Rugs
Friends Homes West resident, Lillian Barnes, says, “I inherited my love
of needlework from my mother and
grandmother. At the end of each day,
they always had some needlework project in their laps and were never idle. I
do all types of needlework too but my
special love is making tapestry hooked
rugs. I guess you could say I’m just an
avid ‘hooker’.”
Lillian displayed some of her exquisite
creations at the Collectomania event at
Friends Homes West and showed interested residents how tapestry hooked rugs
are done on a small frame using a needle

Homes Resident, Karlyn Shankland, how

similar to a sturdy crochet hook. Lillian
said, “This hobby just keeps me excited
and gives me a love-of-living attitude.
God gave me this gift, and it gives me
so much joy and contentment.”
For Lillian, her needlework is a serious commitment. She works on tapestry
hooked projects in her apartment almost
every day. In addition, she meets on a
weekly basis with members of her church
who do needlework and once a month,
travels to Winston-Salem to meet with
a group involved with tapestry hooked
projects. “As you age, your interests
change. I’m 86 now and still so excited
to use my gifts and pursue my hobby.”
Hand-Made Dolls
continued from page 1
my husband that when I retired, I wanted
to learn how to make dolls, not just the
stuffed creations I’d been making for
years.”
In 1991 she retired, and she and a
friend connected with a lady in Sumner
who had molds for making hand-made
porcelain dolls. Marie explained that you
actually start with a powder that you mix
to make a liquid which goes into separate
molds to create the face, arms and legs.
After the solution hardens, it takes a lot
of work to clean and smooth each part
of the doll before the painting process
begins. Painting could take months to
achieve just the right delicate coloring.
Marie also made the doll’s bodies out of
cloth, stuffed them and attached heads
and limbs. Moveable eyes were ordered
along with wigs and Marie would then
make special clothes for each doll.
One of her baby dolls is wearing a
christening dress which was worn by
Marie’s own children. A little boy doll is
dressed in a yellow gingham outfit that
belonged to her son. Another doll is a
copy of an old German doll and is dressed
in a beautiful christening dress Marie
made. Each of her dolls is promised to
one of her children or grandchildren.
When the family comes to visit, they
play with the Raggedy Ann and Andy’s
but the hand-made porcelain dolls are
works of art and have been shown twice
in the Woolman display case. “It’s a joy
to share them,” Marie said.
Marie Bilbro, a resident of Friends
Homes at Guilford, estimates that
through the
years she has
made more than
50 sets of Raggedy Ann and
Andy dolls of all
sizes. For a number of years she
worked at Jefferson-Pilot and
then for 25 years
she worked with
the city school
system. “I told
Marie Bilbro with just a few of her beautiful dolls.
