These seniors have blown up the internet this week. Love when this kinda idea resonates with so many people. Covid is especially difficult for seniors in homes who are not able to see family or friends who live outside the home.
Victorian Senior Care, an organization in the USA that manages several assisted care facilities came up with this brilliant idea. Maybe you want to write one of these lovely people?
I bet having worked as a mail clerk Cecilia would love, love some snail mail headed her way. Use this address to write her:
Cecilia
160 Warren C. Coleman Boulevard
Concord, NC 28027
Now, Mr. Charles and I share a special love for the song Amazing Grace. I’ll leave it to him to sing it though. You all should thank me for that!

For any kids out there looking for something to do these summer months a long term care facility in Ontario, Canada is inviting kids (and adults as well) to write to their guests as penpals. More info here.
I certainly agree barb. I love to write letters. I’m retired, 72 years old, retired from the Iowa health care system of des Moines iowa. I wrote to Linda n. However you or the organization might have two Linda’s.
Thank you John for writing to Linda n…I sure someone named Linda receives it. No doubt it will bring much joy. THanks for reading along here.
Loved this post !!
Thanks so much, Mike! I loved the whole concept of writing to seniors duing Covid.
Loved this post – thank you! I often drive by a senior living facility in the small rural town near me and they posted a request for postcards at the beginning of COVID-19 so I started sending a couple every few weeks. It’s fine to drive by it and think about the folks inside who I hope are enjoying the pretty pictures and quick notes, even though I’ll likely never meet them.
Ann! I love that you already did this. And postcards are just perfect I think, gives a fun visual plus a wee note. How kind of you. No doubt your postcards spread much joy.
