What are you most thankful for this year?

I love the Jack Satter House fundraising calendar that the older adults publish every year in Revere that shows them enjoying life to the fullest.

Why does this mean so much to you?

The residents are in the 60s. 70, 80, and 90, and they are showcased in the monthly photos living life in their golden years: cooking, playing games, gardening, dancing and so much more.

How has this made a difference in your 2025?

It helped me to realize that I should be planning to enjoy my life today, tomorrow, and decades from now.

What do you wish others knew about what you’re thankful for?

I wish they knew to celebrate the physical and spiritual beauty of our aging neighbors in the monthly calendar photographs.
