GHBC Employee Gift Fund

LIVE the good life at GHBC! THANK those who help make

it so good. GIVE generously, with thoughtfulness and love, to our

employees/friends.

For many months the video screens in our common areas have

shown us the smiling faces of GHBC employees—the food servers,

housekeepers, maintenance teams and behind-the-scenes employees.

Thanks to the talents and generosity of the video producers Peg

Bethany and Russ O’Connell, we are able to see — to “meet”— these

people who help to make our lives safe, comfortable and pleasant.

Right now, with our annual Employee Gift Fund in full swing,

it’s especially fitting to stop and smile back at those friendly faces----

members of our large GHBC family. Remember the old war-time

slogan, “Give ‘til it hurts”? How about “Give ‘til it feels good.”

Think of the many worthwhile ways that our monetary gifts are

gratefully used—college tuition, gifts for families in employees’

homelands, down payment on a car, paying for music lessons, etc.

There’s a warm feeling knowing how much our gifts, both monetary

and gifts of friendship, mean to our fellow GHBC’ers. So, please,

Give ‘Til It Feels Good. Thank you….Barbara Morris

A Message From The Clinic:

We are happy to announce that Zainab Thomas, Nurse Practitioner, is

now an in-network provider with CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield and

BlueCross BlueShield Federal Employee Program. What does this

mean? If you are a resident who does NOT have Medicare Part B and

only have one of the insurances listed above, you can have a visit

with Zainab that will be covered by BlueCross BlueShield.

Chuck Redd is an accomplished performer on both drums and vibraphone. Mr. Redd began performing and

recording internationally when he joined the Charlie Byrd Trio at the age of 21. He also joined the Great

Guitars (Barney Kessel, Charlie Byrd, and Herb Ellis.) Mr. Redd was featured vibraphonist with the Mel

Torme All-Star Jazz Quintet from 1991 until 1996. Redd's career highlights include a concert with the Dizzy

Gillespie Quintet in Africa for the Namibian Independence Celebration. In 2007 Mr. Redd was featured

with the prestigious Milt Jackson Tribute Band. Other recent engagements include jazz cruises in the

Mediterranean, stints with Bucky Pizzarelli and Ken Peplowski at Dizzy's Club (Jazz at Lincoln Center),

headlining with his trio at The River Room of Harlem, and performances at Smalls in New York City. He is

on the faculty at The University of Maryland School of Music and presents master classes, workshops and

lectures around the country.

Robert Redd is a current member with The Duke Ellington Orchestra, performing throughout the U.S. and

abroad. Most recent tours with the orchestra have included Japan, Singapore, Korea, Israel, London and

frequent performances at the Blue Note, New York. He was a member of the late Keter Betts trio for 13

years and continues to be pianist and leader for the Wolf Trap Jazz Trio, which was started by Betts. From

1995-1998, Robert was pianist and musical director for singer/songwriter Kenny Rankin. He was a member

of the Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra and worked frequently as a member of the Charlie Byrd

Trio. Robert can be heard on numerous recordings and is a QRS recording artist, having recorded two piano

COMMUNITY CORNER

The time has come, the calendar says for us to do what nobody can do for us. Each of us

must vote in our Nation’s election on Tuesday, November 6, if you haven’t already done so

by early ballot. It has been said that the biggest hurdle our country faces at this time is

cynicism…folks saying it’s a done deal; my vote won’t matter; I don’t know the candidates,

or I don’t understand the amendments to the VA Constitution being put forward for my support. As Colin

Powell said “You’re not just voting for an individual, you’re voting for an agenda. You’re voting for a

platform. You’re voting for a political philosophy.” Dr. Robert Jeffress, host of Pathway to Victory (a

national radio and television ministry) reminds us “ Every time we go into the voting booth, we are

choosing the moral and spiritual direction of our nation. That is a privilege and responsibility that should

not be abdicated.” As a registered voter residing at GHBC, you only need to make your way to the

Auditorium in order to cast your vote…talk about perks and resident benefits!

Become a Dementia Friend!

What is a Dementia Friend?

“A Dementia Friend is someone who, through viewing a series of online videos, learns about what it's like to

live with dementia and then turns that understanding into action. From telling friends about the Dementia

Friends program to visiting someone who is living with dementia, every action counts. Anyone of any age

can be a Dementia Friend – we all have a part to play in creating dementia friendly communities”- Dementia

Friends USA.

Goodwin House Incorporated is committed to becoming a leader in Dementia through care, education, and

awareness. All staff and residents have the opportunity to become a Dementia Friend! To complete the

online training, visit dementiafriendsusa.org/become-a-dementia-friend. The training consists of a series of

short videos. If you would like in-person assistance with this online training, please email GHI Intern,

Lindsey LeClair, at [email protected]. She is available Mondays from 9:00 a.m. -1:00 p.m. and

Fridays from 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

VIRGINIA MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS IN RICHMOND

WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE MOTOR COACH

Wheelchairs provide mobility to many people who would otherwise be quite confined. Although our GHBC

bus is equipped to handle wheelchairs, most motor coaches cannot do this.

Our trip to Richmond on Wednesday, November 14, is different. We have contracted for a motor coach

with a lift built especially for wheelchairs. Although this is short notice, if you are interested in the trip to

the Virginia Museum of Fine Art, call Carolyn Buttolph at 703-842-3177.

In the future, whenever possible, we plan to contract for a motor coach with this feature.

SAVE THE DATE

Tuesday, November 13, in the Auditorium will be the next Loren Mead Memorial Foreign Affairs talk on

The Trump Administration Trade Policy: What Has Changed; What Happens Next and What are the

Consequences for the Position of the U.S. in the World.

FAMILY TRIP

NEW RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT

Bob and Mary Bullock moved into Pointe apartment 1174 on Friday, October 12.

Bob spent his early years in Baltimore, where he attended Baltimore

City College (a public high school) for two years. He completed his

last two years at McKinley High School in Washington and

graduated in 1946. He went to Johns Hopkins University and then

graduated from the George Washington School of Medicine. He

practiced internal medicine in Arlington, VA, until he sold his

practice in 1994 and went on to work at the Rader Clinic and at the

Arlington Free Clinic. He has enjoyed playing tennis, reading, and

traveling. Both he and Mary have enjoyed many of the courses

offered through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at

American University.

Mary grew up in Flushing, New York, and attended The Mary Louis Academy. After graduating from there

in 1955, she went to the College of New Rochelle, where she obtained a degree in English. She taught

English in the Arlington Public Schools for 20 years while raising the 6 children in their blended family.

After retiring from the school system, she went to work in the Office of Public Affairs at the National

Science Foundation for 8 years. She loves music and sang with the Arlington Metropolitan Chorus for 10

years. She continues to volunteer at Food for Others, which maintains the largest food bank in Northern

Virginia. She also volunteers with the American Council for International Education. This organization

brings students from former Soviet and Yugoslav states to this country for a year of high school study while

living with an American family. Mary’s responsibilities there include evaluating student applications.

Philly is Flowering

Early next year, Philadelphia is the setting for an

outstanding flower show – a premier event. We have a

unique opportunity to attend on March 6-7 (Wednesday and

Thursday).

In cooperation with White Stars Tours, we plan an

overnight bus trip. We’ll leave here on Wednesday, attend

the show, enjoy dinner in the City of Brotherly Love, and

then spend the night at a hotel in the area. The following

day, we’ll have a three-hour historic tour that includes a visit

to the Reading Terminal Market, Independence Hall, and

other sights. Later in the afternoon, we’ll head for home.

The cost is surprisingly modest. Everything –

transportation, admittance to the show, dinner, and the hotel – is just $139 (based on double occupancy). For

those who travel alone, the single supplement will be $79.

This is a Family trip. Residents of GHA and GHBC as well as members of GHAH and the Priority

Club are invited. Although the trip is months away, we are beginning to accept reservations now. Contact

Carolyn Buttolph at 703-842-3177 (email [email protected]).

New Stretch and Flex Class Beginning on Tuesday Mornings!

Taking time to stretch is great for your health. We are now offering a Tuesday morning stretch class to

compliment the class we already have on Thursday. The class is advanced beginner and includes standing

and floor exercises. See below for reasons to make time to stretch, and join in the fun on Tuesday and

Thursday mornings at 8:15 a.m.

Benefits of stretching

1. Increases your flexibility

Regular stretching can help increase your flexibility, which is

crucial for your overall health. Not only can improved

flexibility help you to perform everyday activities with relative

ease, but it can also help delay the reduced mobility that can

come with aging.

2. Increases your range of motion

Being able to move a joint through its full range of motion gives

you more freedom of movement. Stretching on a regular basis can help increase your range of motion.

3. Improves your posture

Muscle imbalances are common and can lead to poor posture. One study found that a combination of

strengthening and stretching specific muscle groups can reduce musculoskeletal pain and encourage proper

alignment. That, in turn, may help improve your posture.
