Today, we celebrated a very special member of the OCC family as Chrissie officially begins her retirement era — and steps into her favorite new role full-time… Grammy. 💙

From sharing stories in the office to keeping us laughing with her jokes, Chrissie has been such a bright part of daily life at OCC. Today’s celebration was filled with seniors, staff, friends, family, and even her dad, all coming together to celebrate someone who has meant so much to so many.

Chrissie, thank you for the care, laughter, and heart you brought to OCC. You will be deeply missed around here, but we couldn’t be happier for you as you begin this next chapter.

Enjoy every minute of the Grammy life — you’ve earned it.
