Message from Rob Whitten, President of JGS Lifecare

To Our JGS Lifecare Family,

As we approach Yom Kippur, I want to take a moment to wish our entire JGS Lifecare community a very happy and healthy New Year. We will be celebrating the fall harvest festival of Sukkot and Simchat Torah next. Both holidays are joyous, filled with beautiful music, festive decorations, and traditional foods that bring our community together.

Our 45th Annual Frankel-Kinsler Classic Day of Tournaments was a wonderful example of spirit. More than 200 people came together for a day of golf, pickleball, cards, laughter, and friendship. Together, we raised more than $139,000 to support the care of our community’s elders. My heartfelt thanks go to our participants, sponsors, volunteers, and staff who made the day so special.

I am also incredibly proud of the teams at JNH and Ruth’s House Assisted Living, both of which received successful surveys from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health and the Executive Office of Elder Affairs. These accomplishments reflect the dedication and teamwork our staff demonstrate every day.

Shanah Tovah and G’mar Chatim Tovah!

Warm regards,

Rob
