Earlier this month, we had the absolute joy and privilege of celebrating a very special milestone—Mrs. Matilda 98th birthday! At Des Arc Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, we consider it a true blessing to care for such a beloved and respected member of our community.
Mrs. Matilda is more than just a resident—she’s a pillar of Des Arc. Her warmth, wisdom, and grace have touched the lives of so many, and it was an honor to help her mark this incredible occasion.
To make the day even more special, Mrs. Matilda was able to spend time at her home, surrounded by family and friends. She returned with a glowing smile and shared that it had been a “wonderful birthday.” Hearing those words meant the world to us.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to Allison in our kitchen, who lovingly prepared a beautiful birthday cake that was enjoyed by many. It was the perfect sweet touch to a day filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories.
Happy Birthday, Mrs. Matilda! We hope your day was as extraordinary as you are. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey and celebration. Here’s to many more joyful moments together.
