May 22nd - Joan Morris, our invisible and hard
working night concierge, says all her
birthdays were special with 6 brothers
treating her like a princess. One of her
favorite birthdays was her 5th when her
brothers planned and prepared the
whole birthday party for Joan and family and friends. They decorated the stair
bannisters with streamers and made the
cake and sandwiches for refreshments. One brother
used his allowance to buy her a blue chiffon dress with
rose decorations which she remembers to this day
Broadway Palm Dinner Theater
May 26th - Eunice Kehl enjoyed a birthday surprise
party planned by her husband and
Mother Nature. They were living in
Johnstown PA and Mother Nature sent
a snowstorm. Her sister said, “If I'd
known it would snow, I wouldn't have
come.” Her husband said he was taking
her to dinner at a nearby restaurant and
there were her friends and family gathered. Her children surprised her and hubby on their
25th wedding anniversary.
Prior reservations were made for this show,
your name can be added to a waiting list,
if there should be any cancellations.
May 28th - Donna Monson is originally from Erie
PA where she grew up, graduated HS
and went to work for the telephone co
in Jamestown NY. She has a son from
her first marriage. Her husband died
while she was quite young. Along the
way she married again, sadly losing
those two husbands to death. She made
a choice to enter missionary work
when in her 50s and spent 4 years in Nepal – the capital Katmandu and also 180 miles further. She came to
Lehigh Acres to be near two of her sisters. Donna
moved to Fountain Crest and is an active game player
and attends Fellowship hour.
May 28th - Lori Ames is one of our newer intrepid
dining room servers. Starting out in
Rockland ME, she went on to Tenants
Harbor and Thomaston before settling
on Matinicus Island, 25 miles offshore
from Rockland. Her occupation? Lobstering! In addition, she mowed lawns,
managed rentals, did bookkeeping and,
was town clerk on the Island and chairman of the
school board. Florida, with family here, became the
wintering destination 15 years ago when her son needed a high school to attend. Whew! She is some energizer bunny!

May 5th - Minnie Mehl and Ray are on their third
stay at Fountain Crest. Sadly, Minnie
fell and broke vertebrae in her back. After a year of recuperation at daughter
Linda's home in Naples, they chose to
return to independent living here at
Fountain Crest. Her companion is Honey, a 5-1/2 month old teacup poodle.
She says she's loved all her birthdays.
Her parents and Ray and their 4 children always made
a “big deal” of birthdays.
May 9th - David Acuff was born in Cosport IN, grew
up and joined the Navy from there. He
served 27 months at the submarine base
in Pearl Harbor. On the USS Cimarron,
he touched down at Hong Kong, Japan
and the Philippines. While working for
a consumer finance co., he met & married Sandra. They have a son and
daughter. He worked for the IRS in IN
and farmed in KY. After the second tractor rollover,
enough was enough and they came to Lehigh Acres.
He again worked for the IRS and raised orchids for
shows. They moved to Milton FL to be near their son.
They remembered Fountain Crest and have come here
to live near their daughter in North Fort Myers.
May 15th - Paul Ryder especially remembers his 16th
birthday as he had his father sign for
him to join the Air Force. Another happy day was the day his wings were
pinned. Boyhood heroes included
“Lucky Lindy” Lindbergh and Amelia
Earhart. He was in the 8th Air Force
(Berlin air lift and MAST) as mechanic
and flight engineer. He is delighted to have a grandson
in the CAP (Civil Air Patrol) following in granddad's
footsteps. The best that ever came his way, he confides, is Betty!
May 17th - Al Horwitz has come to Fountain Crest
via the Bronx NY and Brooklyn and
other points east. He served in the
Army (Fort Hood TX & Fort Eustis
VA) and is a Korean War veteran. He
earned his bachelor degree in finance
from New York University. He was a
merchandiser for Robert Hall Clothing,
assistant to the VP of CATO, worked for Goldsmith
Bros. in Nassau NY. He earned his nickname of “Al
Horn” while involved in newspaper sales. He has a son
and daughter. He and Johanna moved here from Palm
Beach County.
May 17th - Brian Snider, Fountain Crest maintenance, says his 50th birthday was a winner as he and friends and family (some
from IN) celebrated with several days
in Key West. Part of the celebration
was charter fishing out of Key West.
And, yes, he did snag an 8 foot bull
shark with his first and last deep sea
fishing gala.
May 17th - Ursula Matteson remembers her 1945
birthday with the ending of WWII in
Germany. Her birthday gifts from her
grandmother were a toothbrush and
house slippers – very difficult to obtain.
An American Care package contained
peanut butter which they were not familiar with. However, the birthday cake
had peanut butter in it. Family and friends gathered for
this event after walking from their homes as there were
no streetcars. Another special memory is meeting Ray
in 1948 while he was stationed with the American
Army in Germany.
