Vegas Voice 3-18

Did you see the Las Vegas Review Journal
newspaper on February 8 th ? It featured our
Ms Senior Nevada group and the write-up was terrific.
The article was called “Golden Girl Power” and featured our 1986
Queen, Dorothy Guralnik. At 95 years young, she still entertains at
Assisted Living Centers, convalescent homes and Health Fairs with our
troupe.
The reporter would have been equally impressed if he knew how
many of the dancers have artificial hips and knees! The quality that
distinguishes our Ms Senior Nevada family is that we have been serving
Nevada for 33 years. We all have had injuries, illnesses or tragedies, but
we keep going, serving and making life better for others.
This fall, we will be doing our “Showcase of Stars” and selecting
our new Ms Senior Nevada to be our Ambassador and promote healthy
ageing. Patti Hoganson would be amazed that the organization she
founded is active and growing after all these years.
She wanted a way for seniors to keep on enjoying life. We’re not a
beauty contest or a “pay for play” event. Our doors are open to all Nevada
ladies that have reached the age of 55 and desire to promote seniors in
Nevada while having fun.

Our Golden Girl Power

You Gotta Laugh

Rules are Rules: Hospital regulations require
a wheelchair for patients being discharged.
However, while working as a student nurse, Barbara
found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed
with a suitcase at his feet.
He insisted he didn’t need any help to leave the hospital. After a chat
about rules being rules, he reluctantly allowed Barbara to wheel him to
the elevator.
On the way down, Barbara asked him if his wife was meeting him. “I
don’t know,” he said. “She’s still upstairs in the bathroom changing out
of her hospital gown.”
Love is Forever: An elderly gent was invited to his old friend’s home
for dinner. He was impressed by the way his buddy preceded every request
to his wife with endearing terms: Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart.
The couple had been married almost 70 years and clearly, they were
still very much in love. While the wife was in the kitchen, the man said
to his friend, “I think it’s wonderful that after all these years, you still call
your wife those loving pet names.”
The old man hung his head. “I have to tell you the truth,” he said, “I
forgot her name about 10 years ago.”
But, then again: George was reading the paper when his wife walked
up behind him and smacked him on the back of the head with a frying
pan. He asked, “What was that for?”
She said, “I found a piece of paper in your pocket with ‘Betty Sue’
written on it.” He replied, “Jeez, honey, remember last week when I went
to the track? ‘Betty Sue’ was the name of the horse I went there to bet on.”
She shrugged and walked away.
Three days later he’s reading his paper when she walks up behind
him and smacks him on the back of the head again with the frying pan.
George asks, “What was that for?” She answers, “Your horse called.”
