Summer is in full swing at Jewish Senior Life!

Residents at Hechtman recently enjoyed an afternoon of friendly competition with classic summer yard games, including giant Connect 4 and co****le, followed by our first Ice Cream Social of the season.

The event featured live music from Rick Davis, plenty of sweet treats, and what matters most... great friends, laughter, and time spent together. From outdoor games to singing along with familiar favorites, it was a wonderful way to celebrate the start of summer.

At JSL, every season brings new opportunities to connect, stay active, and enjoy life together.

Today at the Union at Meer, residents enjoyed another engaging session in our Live & Learn series: Unforgettable Voices – Neil Diamond.

From chart-topping hits to the stories behind the music, the program celebrated one of America's most iconic performers while bringing residents together through shared memories, conversation, and a love of music.

Programs like Live & Learn are just one of the many ways residents at Jewish Senior Life continue to explore new interests, connect with one another, and enjoy enriching experiences every day.

Because great music never gets old — and neither does the joy of learning.

This year's Eight Over 80 celebration was more than an awards event, it was a powerful reminder of the impact one life can have on an entire community.

A special part of this tradition is the connection between the honorees and the students of Frankel Jewish Academy, who spent months learning about each honoree’s life experiences, values, challenges, leadership, and commitment to Tikkun Olam — repairing the world.

Thank you to our generous sponsors, supporters, volunteers, event committee, and everyone who helped make the 33rd annual Eight Over 80 celebration so meaningful. Your support helps continue this important tradition honoring lives dedicated to service, leadership, compassion, and community.

Congratulations again to Barbara Bloom, Harvey Bronstein, Carol Kent, Claire Kretchmer, Diane Klein, Allan Nachman, Richard Shapack, and Jimm White. Your lives continue to inspire all of us.
