The Kitones sang at the Kiwanis Key Club, Senior Citizens Prom at the Seward High School this evening. The old Gym was well decorated and a significant number of folks from the Seward Care Centers were brought to the party. A disc jockey provided very appropriate music and treats were available. There must have been over 20 wheel chairs with Key Clubers providing the locomotion. A King and Queen will be crowned later this evening with the whole event covered by the local press.
Elaine’s 95-year old sister Joyce, was among those enjoying the event. Her “escort” and I are shown with her in front of a “stand-alone” cardboard model of a fancy car. While we visit Joyce occasionally at Ridgewood, I probably had the best visit with her after we sang this evening than I have had for some time. It is interesting what the music, the young people reaching out to them and the climate of having a “Good Time” does for people. I don’t know how well Joyce will be able to express her appreciation to her “escort” and the “Key Club” in general, but knowing her as I do, they did more for her than what she even realized. They are like Angels.
