Carol and Floyd enjoyed traveling throughout most of the United States in- cluding Hawaii. They took a cruise to the Caribbean Islands. Carol should find new friends here at Kir- by who share similar interests. She en- joys reading and studying about history. To stay active, she walks. Like so many of our residents she will enjoy walking our beautiful campus this spring. Staying involved with her church activities will keep Carol busy. When you meet Carol, give her a warm Kirby welcome and invite her to partic- ipate in our activities listed in The Pine- cone. We are so glad Carol chose Kirby Pines for her new home.

A memorable trip for Linda is the one she took to Hawaii for her high school re- union. She also has fond memories of vis- iting her grandparents In Murphy, North Carolina. Linda’s varied interests include: collect- ing and listening to old vinyl records (es- pecially country and John Denver), fol- lowing NASCAR Racing (mainly Rusty Wallace), watching Hallmark movies and cooking oysters (Rockefeller and Bien- ville). When you meet Linda, you’ll find her friendly, fun loving and anxious to meet new people. Extend to her a warm Kirby welcome, she is a good fit for our com- munity.

With the move, collecting has slowed down and they are enjoying Sudoku, Scrabble, and crossword puzzles. This is a couple you surely will want to seek out and welcome. They are warm, friendly, and will fascinate you with sto- ries of their life adventures. We are very happy to have them as neighbors!
