were born at a time when there were only
48 states in the Union. Much of our group
today remembers what life was like before air

part of phenomenal advances in technology
and medicine. We know even better things
will be coming and are happy many of you will
benefit as a result.
There are several things we want you to
know about us. First, we treated each other
as family. We are not a perfect family by
any means but we do stick together and find
ways to work out our differences in positive,
constructive ways. Secondly, we forgot
what the second thing was. However, it had
something to do with having a good sense
of humor and smiling a lot. Finally, we are
a people who strive to finish well. There is
something wonderful that happens when
you are around people who strive to become
better each day. They are infectious to all
they encounter and leave a wake of goodness
in their path. Moreover, their latter days are
greater than their former days.
We have placed a few memories for you
in the time capsule we hope you will enjoy.
Some of the items represent our growth and
development for the past 20 years. Other items
were left to us from the founding members of
Spanish Cove.
We have prayed for your future to be bright
and wish you the best success as you continue
on your journey. May the Spirit of Spanish
Cove always be alive and thriving!
Congratulations Spanish Cove!!!
With sincere regards on behalf of the
residents and staff of 2014,
Don Blose, CEO/Executive Administrator
Clarence Drumeller, Chairman of the Board
