One of the contractors that Keller William asked to donate his time on Red Day, put in handrails along the stairway.
Now there is a continuous rail plus rails on both sides making it much safer (and easier) for my mom to walk.

Why were they selected? Keller Williams was looking for families who have made a difference in the community. Laurie approached a staff member at her church (which also is my parents' church), and asked if the church was aware of any families who fit what they were looking for in terms of positive community impact. My parents were recommended, and Laurie contacted me for more information about ways they had served others throughout their lives.
So, I shared with her some of the ways they have shared their time, talents, and gifts with others: My Dad use to be the Deacon of his church. He and my were one of the original families who founded the church in the mid-1970s.
Since that time, they both started and led activities and trips with the Gad-Abouts - a senior group at their church. They stopped leading the group a few years ago due to my mom's mobility issues.
My mom co-started and continues to host the Angel Quilters at her home bi-weekly. The ladies made quilts that are donated to people who are homeless, been through a natural disaster, or who were in domestic violence situations and are starting thier lives over.
For his career, my dad was a school social worker at two different schools (senior and junior high). He was a Boy Scout leader, and helped guide many boys to becoming Eagle Scouts. He led many trips to northern Minnesota as well as throughout the U.S. to help boys learn how to camp, fish, and gain outdooor skills.
He was a Big Brother (as part of the Big Brother/Little Brother program) to many boys who are now men in their 50s-60s.
My mom led Girl Scout troops, a 4-H club, and has volunteered in many ways through her church.
Currently, they are both facing health challenges - my dad with Alzheimer's Disease, and mom with mobility issues, diabetes, and vision problems. They would like to stay in their home, but the upkeep as well as several features make it challenging.
Keller Williams stepped in and made many improvements to their home to make it safer for them plus help with outdoor maintenance which had been done as well as in the past due to my father having Alzheimer's Disease, and the impact it has had on his skills and abilities.

We recently sent our mobility coach for a respray as it was one of only two coaches left that had it's lines painted on rather than the vinyl we use now.
Once it came back it received our latest logo's and livery as well as some carefully added detailing around the front and rear windows and the headlights to bring it's styling in line with our new Plaxton Leopard.
What is the purpose that this ivy grows?
I felt the stoutness of this plant. And, it was caught with the encouragement to me.

Now this machine is a spot of genius. Ironically, I don't have many shots of this, because I was too busy playing it!
Think of this as a game of old-person frogger, where the cars are going round in circles, stopping you from easily (but slowly) walking to the bingo/ballroom on the other side of the road.
Instead of mucking around with 3D graphics engines, bugs or code, the way this works is ingenious. Above the ride is a set of concentric circles, each spinning around a centre with the bingohall on it and there are toy cars stuck to each circle. The cunning part comes in the form of a extensible rod which has a small video camera and white plastic blob on the end.
This... is the old person :)
The screen you see in front is actually a view from this camera. The white blob is connected to a microswitch, which changes state if a toy car strikes the blob. A really nice touch is the audio, it really does sound like the cars are whizzing by as the audio is keyed to your and the cars positions.
The best feature is the zimmerframe below (out of shot :() on each side it has bike brakes, which when clenched causes you to 'go forward'. The zimmerframe is made to move up and forward and back again, as if you were really using it like an infirm person, and the camera moves forward slowly.
If you manage to make it to the centre, the view switches seamlessly to sped up video footage of 'you' going into the real bingohall/dancehall and spinning about the floor!
“I woke up one morning, screaming with pain. I couldn’t move, I couldn’t walk. I was taken to hospital but they couldn’t tell what it was. I was prodded and poked by doctors for years after that. I can’t remember the number of scans and tests I underwent. It wasn’t until three years ago that they diagnosed it as hypermobility. My joints are too flexible, it means I can’t walk sometimes, hence the cane. Everything that had ever happened up to that point was explained. There were so many times where I said, ‘I don’t want to be this person anymore.’ I hated being who I was, I wanted it to stop.
Meeting my partner, having him being so supportive has helped me immensely. I met him through a pen-pal site. Around the time I was really lonely, I was still dealing with accepting my condition. I was sick of talking about it with all my friends, I wanted to talk about normal things. Which we did, and he understood me from the very beginning. He doesn’t know how much he’s appreciated. He’s my best friend.”
