Lisbon - On Friday, December 4^th a group of 18 students from the Lisbon High School and Philip W. Sugg Middle School and ten adult Lisbon Volunteers shared Holiday cheer - a gift of Christmas Caroling for the residents at the Lamp Alzheimer’s Facility in Lisbon. The evening sing-along was such a special time for the residents, as well as for the students and their families. Upon arrival, student carolers were greeted by a few of the residents, and one resident was so happy to see the students decked out in their Christmas attire, she began to cry. A special thanks to Richelle Niles, Activity Director at the Lamp Alzheimer’s Facility for inviting students to visit with the residents, and to PWS Music Teacher, Jonathan Pollock, and Lisbon’s Community Resource Coordinator, Monica Millhime, for organizing such a good time for everyone. The smiles on the residents’ faces made the whole night a blessing to all.
