Happy Retirement, Anne, from Patti!

January 30, 2026 by Katelyn

Many thanks to one of our dedicated volunteer caregivers and friends, Patti Sims, who sponsored this day of sanctuary in celebration of another long-time supporter and friend, Anne Roberson, in celebration of her retirement!

“I’m sponsoring today in honor of my friend Anne Roberson’s well-earned retirement. Anne is one of the hardest workers I know, so she’s probably a little unsure about slowing down. I thought, what better way to show her how to master retirement than through the retired residents of CSNW?”

Anne, now that you’re retired, you can:

Sleep without an alarm like Negra:

Read for pleasure – not just emails – like Cy:

Exercise consistently like Missy:

Spend unhurried time with friends like “Mora” (Mave and Dora):

Mentor someone like Rayne with George:

Tackle home projects like Jamie:

Go to movies in the afternoon (or spy on the neighbors 😉 ) like Burrito:

Have more time for gardening (and eating tomatoes like Missy)!:

May this next adventure bring an abundance of all the good things you can imagine, Anne! Enjoy your days ahead!
