(Photo above left): Executive Director Sue Jordan announced the

Employee of the Year at the Annual Holiday Party on December 21, 2018.

(Photo above right): 2017 Employee of the Year Lutch A. poses with his award.

Congratulations to the 2017 Employee of the Year award

recipient, Lutch A. Sue Jordan, Executive Director, announced the

Employee of the Year at the Annual Holiday party in December. “I am

very proud of Lutch. He is a true jack-of-all-trades, and he really cares

about the Palo Alto Commons community,” Sue commented. Lutch is

currently the Staff Developer, and he has worked at PAC for over 15

years. Prior to being promoted to this position earlier this year, Lutch

had been an Activity Coordinator, a driver, and, most notably, the

Assistant Program Director in the Meadow Wing. “Lutch’s ability to

take on new challenges and responsibilities with a positive and eager

attitude is one of many reasons he truly deserves this honor,” Sue added.

Charito Amoranto, his current supervisor, adds, “Lutch’s impact on

staff development was immediate, and his role in helping to hire and to

train employees is a big and important one. He’s doing an incredible

job, as always.”

The Employee of the Year was chosen from all the Employees of

the Month for 2017. Some criteria include being dependable and

hard-working, displaying consistently exceptional quality, integrity

and ethic on the job, demonstrating outstanding customer service, and

exhibiting a positive and professional attitude.

Congratulations and Kudos to Lutch!

Let’s Get Physical! Is your New Year’s resolution to be more active and to keep

up your physical health? We will be keeping track of resident

attendance in our daily exercise class throughout this month, and

we will reward the resident who attends exercise class, the weekly

walking group, and the fitness room the most times throughout the

month of January with a special Fitness Award in February!

We offer many opportunities for residents to get and to stay fit,

so take advantage of the fitness programs and let’s get physical!

Also join us for our daily indoor walking groups.

Residents are encouraged to continue taking regular walks as part

of a healthy lifestyle. Walking indoors at Palo Alto Commons is a

great way to circumvent the cold weather. Of course, whether

indoors or outdoors, residents should always practice safe walking.

Calculation of the distance walked per lap around our hallways:

1 lap = 1/10 mile 5 laps = 1/2 mile 10 laps = 1 mile

Music Appreciation Lecture: Between the Notes!

Join us for a special music appreciation program with

Yvonne Boxerman, sister-in-law of resident Sura. We will explore

some of the world's great musical pieces

by delving into what the composer might

have meant, what you hear and what the

piece means to you. We'll listen to short

excerpts of major works and then discuss

these pieces. For example, there are

some whimsical musical expressions in

the Grand Canyon Suite and violent

evocations of war in Tchaikovsky's 1812

Overture. We'll explore how the composer

plays on our emotions in, for example,

Samuel Barber'sAdagio for Strings or

how Vivaldi portrays a particular mood in Summer from the Four

Seasons. This program does not require any prior knowledge of

classical music.

Yvonne Boxerman studied music, in particular the Baroque

Period, at McGill University in Montreal. She also played

classical flute for many years. Now, after retiring from several

careers in Education, HR and Administration, she can really

enjoy listening to, and appreciating, a world of wonderful music.
