A message from
Joseph E. Murphy,
chief executive officer
With the long-awaited arrival of spring,
its hard not to smile every time you walk
outside. For each of our Masonic Villages,
the signs of spring arrive in various forms.
In Dallas, residents are able to dine
outdoors at the Irem Clubhouse, which is
gearing up for wedding season. Golfers
have started hitting the greens, too.
In Elizabethtown, the Formal Gardens
are being prepared for the Elizabethtown
Area High School prom to be held in May
on our campus. The landscape department
is busy cleaning up after the long winter,
and the more than 35,000 spring flowering
bulbs they planted in the fall are showing
their pretty heads.
Lafayette Hill is undergoing a major
transformation with the new apartment
building and faade updates nearing
completion. While work continued
throughout the winter, it should really pick
up speed now, with completion expected
this summer. The standing garden beds are
also being restored.
In Sewickley, trips to flower shows and
high school musicals have commenced. The

Spring 2015 3
 Putting Your Mind at Ease
When it comes to our physical health, our bodies may send us
a signal in the form of pain, discomfort or a change in appearance
to alert us of a problem. With mental health, the signs of a problem
may not be as easily identifiable, nor are the treatment options as
well known. Across the Masonic Villages, staff provide resources and
assistance for a broad range of conditions, issues and concerns.
What is mental health?
According to Dr. Jess Lee, psychologist at Masonic Village
at Elizabethtown, mental health can be defined as any emotional
struggle with day-to-day living. You may not be at a point
emotionally where you want to be, he said. It could be something
simple or clinically complex.
Conditions which affect mental health range from anxiety and
depression to more clinical diagnosis, such as bipolar disorder. These
conditions may be brought on by stress, resulting from a change in
environment or disruption of routine, or from experiencing a loss,
such as the death of a loved one, loss of mobility or loss of self-
worth or purpose. Dr. Lee also works with staff to address behavioral
issues, such as a resident who may be a risk to him or herself.
Older adults can go through various adjustments that can be
emotionally taxing, including their family moving away or transitioning
4 Village Voice
through different levels of care, Dr. Lee said. With aging, you have
more health concerns, and that affects you emotionally.
As individuals age, they experience physical changes which
can lead them to feeling isolated or overly critical of themselves,
resulting in depression or other behaviors, Leah DiPersio, director of
social services at Masonic Village at Lafayette Hill, said. Individuals
who are no longer able to verbalize their feelings may express their
feelings as behaviors or agitation.
According to Stacy Schroder, director of wellness and prevention
at Masonic Village at Elizabethtown, the science behind stress is that
it causes the body to release hormones which stimulate the brain
and body. In addition to the increased risk of chronic conditions,
this hormone release can lead to fatigue, loss of memory and
concentration, inability to fight off or recover from illness, anxiety,
sadness, trouble eating and sleeping, pain, weight loss and irritability
or moodiness. Studies show that long-term stress can damage brain
cells, leading to depression.
Why is it important to address mental health?
While they may be defined differently, mental, spiritual and
physical health are intrinsically linked.
When you experience stress, anxiety and depression, the body
reacts to this state of imbalance by manifesting physical symptoms
in our bodies, Stacy said. If left to continue over days, weeks and
months, this can cause conditions which may be as serious as cancer,
autoimmune diseases, reflux, weight gain, heart disease, high blood
pressure and more.
In cases where depression is brought about by unresolved grief,
whether from loss of home, spouse/friends, identity and purpose or
health, these can cumulatively take a toll on mental, physical and
spiritual health.
Helping people to recognize and verbalize their feelings of loss
can be very helpful, Rev. Tim Reichard, director of pastoral care at
Masonic Village at Sewickley, said. It gives them a perspective on
what they feel and a framework for understanding what they are
experiencing. Helping them find new sources of meaning, purpose
and value all help to decrease the grief they experience. Not only this,
but exploring and treating unresolved grief can prevent someone
from taking medication which they may not need.
How each individual addresses his or her mental health is
unique. Some may choose to immediately seek help, whether from a
psychologist or friends. Others may prefer to handle it on their own.
James Horan moved into an apartment at the Masonic Village
at Elizabethtown in 1990. By his side was his wife, Laura. They were
married for 50 years and spent 16 years together at Masonic Village
until her passing in 2006. He was fortunate to have made many friends
in that time, and his neighbors were very supportive after her death.
You dont feel lonely, he said. Were very close on the third vent feelings and options for available resources. They encourage
floor. People really care about you. Youre family here.
James married Shirley a few years later. When she became
ill, and James had to call an ambulance one day, neighbors
immediately reached out. Shirley moved to the Masonic Health
Care Center, where James visited her every day, and friends also
stopped in. She passed away in 2014. With all the friends hes made,
and continues to make, he hasnt eaten alone since. People offer to
take him shopping, or hell open his front door and find bread and
potatoes sitting in the doorway. Members of his lodge, St. Alban-
Swain No. 529, Philadelphia, visit at least twice a year.
In addition to his friends support, James keeps himself busy. He
had been an active volunteer in the past at the Masonic Health Care
Center, and he belongs to the Mens Group where he can share his
views on a variety of topics and converse with other men who have
lost a spouse. (Read more about the group under the Pastoral Care
subhead.)
Al Leisey, also a resident of Masonic Village at Elizabethtown, is
still learning to cope with the loss of his wife. Mary Helen, or Redsy,
as he called her, passed away in September 2014. While she was ill,
he cared for her at home which included reading everything he could
to understand how to best provide for her. They eventually sought
Masonic Village Hospice services. Mary Helen was a registered
nurse, so she asked a lot of questions of those caring for her, which
Spring 2015
was a great way to keep her involved.
We were married 70 years, Al said. We couldnt have had
a better life.
Al was impressed with the hospice services and appreciates
what they were able to do for him by encouraging him to attend
Bereavement Support Group meetings and helping him understand
loss. He wants to return the favor one day, when hes ready, by
volunteering with the hospice program.
I think I could talk to people who are lost in this matter of being
in a dying state, he said. You need some direction. Id like to add
to things around here any way I can. I dont know exactly how I can
help, but Ill explore my options.
Even with the support group meetings, Al was still at a loss. Two
pastors from Masonic Village visited with him and encouraged him
to join the Mens Group.
I wanted to go somewhere where people can share points of
view and feelings, he said. Express what we did as individuals.
This group helps, and hes learning to find his place, thanks to
staff and other residents.
What resources and services are available
at Masonic Villages?
Pastoral Care, Social Services, Therapeutic Recreation and
Nursing staff at all locations can provide support, opportunities to
participation in activities and welcome support from family members
and caregivers. Nutrition and Dietary staff work to address any
decline in appetite due to mental health issues.
Pastoral Care
In Sewickley, Rev. Tim offers counseling primarily within the
context of pastoral care, although he has experience addressing
mental health issues.
Ive found that for the most part, there is great benefit in talking
to a counselor or pastor about hopelessness and depression, he
said. They will be able to direct the person to resources that might
be helpful and provide an understanding of what they are feeling, as
well as help them identify new sources of hope and joy. If a resident
is having a difficult time, the staff will often contact me and ask me
to meet with them.
In Elizabethtown, in addition to meeting with residents one-on-
one, Pastoral Care staff host a Special Singles group for widowed
women and a Mens Group for widowed men.
Pastor A. Preston Van Deursen, director of pastoral care, leads
the Special Singles, which meets the second Friday of each month, at
10:30 a.m., in the Keystone Room at the Clubhouse. The group was
started in 1998 by two women who had lost their husbands weeks
apart and wanted to remind people that they were still alive. Both
5
 went to Pastor Preston and asked if he would begin a group that was
supportive and uplifting to help others who have shared losses.
One of the needs after a loss is to be connected, as many
people have done things as couples and are now excluded or by
themselves, Pastor Preston said. That is one of the reasons we go
on trips and lunches and celebrate holidays together. The purpose
is to make the meetings joyful and allow people not to feel alone.
Pastor Gary George, pastoral care assistant, leads the Mens
Group, which meets every third Tuesday, from 9 to 10 a.m., in
the Keystone Room at the Clubhouse. Started in 2000, the group
includes single and widowed men and men whose spouses reside
in a memory support neighborhood and who may be lonely and
exhausted from caregiving duties.
We want to help them not feel isolated, alone or abandoned,
and to use our meeting time to build relationships and encourage
ongoing social interaction, Pastor Gary said. The group is very
informal. I usually lead our discussions, or we have a guest speaker,
and topics are varied. They may include recent news events, health
issues, science, politics, entertainment, etc. I try to choose interesting
subjects that apply to their interests and generation.
Support Groups
In Elizabethtown, the monthly Dementia Support and Education
Group provides resources for those caring for a loved one living with
dementia at Masonic Village or in the community. Meetings often
feature speakers and serve as an outlet for those dealing with the
stress of caring for a loved one with dementia. Many participants
form bonds with one another and continue attending after their
loved one passes away. The group meets the third Tuesday of every
month, from 10:30 - 11:30 a.m., in the Masonic Health Care Center
Assembly Room.
Bereavement Counseling
The Bereavement Support Group in Elizabethtown meets the
third Thursday of every month, from 10 - 11:30 a.m., in the Large
Recreation Room in the Sycamore North Apartments. Attendees
share in activities, such as music therapy, and inspirational discussions
led by campus chaplains.
The Pastoral Care Department in Elizabethtown also leads a bi-
annual Service of Remembrance and Gratitude in the spring and fall
in the Masonic Health Care Centers Assembly Room. Anyone who
has lost a loved one, whether he or she received care at Masonic
Village or not, is invited to attend.
For families of patients who receive Masonic Village Hospice
services, support is offered for more than a year after the passing
of their loved one. Regardless of whether they live locally or across
the country, they receive a follow-up phone call from staff, cards,
a bereavement support packet and newsletters. Staff offer to meet
one-on-one with anyone who is interested in receiving support.
6 Village Voice
Therapeutic Recreation
At the Masonic Village at Sewickley, Karen Hammond,
recreation supervisor/concierge; Ann Beck, recreation director;
and other staff look for signs of depression in residents, including
forgetfulness, cognitive changes and agitation or aggression toward
other residents or staff. They work as a team to address the situation.
Recreationally speaking, we work toward getting the resident
involved in events and activities they enjoy and, when necessary,
send them reminders to attend, Karen said. The retirement living
nurse, home care supervisor, social worker and myself work together
to observe certain residents for changes every day. We also work
closely with dining and housekeeping staff as they connect with the
residents regularly.
When residents move into the Sturgeon Health Care Center
and Star Points Building personal care residence, staff meet with
them and discuss their past interests, things that make them happy,
things they do not like, etc.
We assess their cognitive ability, as well as physical strengths and
weaknesses, and how they are adapting to their new surroundings in
general, Ann said. If residents are not able to answer, we discuss
these things with family. We visit residents individually to gain trust
and invite them personally to recreational activities, helping them to
succeed at their own level. Another goal is to stimulate interaction
with other residents to ward off loneliness.
In Elizabethtown, Kirk Rakos, therapeutic recreation supervisor,
and his staff of recreation therapists, look for similar signs in residents,
focusing on the three plagues referred to by the Eden Alternative:
loneliness, helplessness and boredom. The Masonic Villages at
Elizabethtown, Sewickley, Lafayette and Warminster are all certified
Eden Alternative communities.
I truly believe recreation and leisure are antidotes to mental
health, Kirk said. First, we learn why an individual did a particular
activity or task, then attempt to bring purpose back into the residents
life by engaging them through the use of recreation. As Morrie said in
the book Tuesdays with Morrie, if you are in bed, you are dead. We
make sure our programming is based on variety and spontaneity.
Individual Counseling
Dr. Lee, in Elizabethtown, is able to listen to someone in
confidence and provide a neutral perspective on a situation that
maybe a person isnt comfortable sharing with his or her spouse or
family. Residents from across campus can visit with him. All they need
to do is ask their doctor to make a referral. His office is located in the
Masonic Health Care Center.
Im motivated by being someone who can advocate for
residents, he said. Be a listening ear and give them help in a way
theyve never had before. I do the best I can for residents who maybe
dont have anyone else or those who really arent functioning. I work
with professionals to get them to a point where theyre happiest. Its
a team approach.
Dr. Lee receives referrals from physicians, nurses and social
workers. Depending on an individuals level of depression, he may
see him or her every week or every two weeks. During the initial visit,
Dr. Lee asks a lot of questions to learn the persons background and
develop a therapeutic relationship and rapport. He may prompt with
questions to find the root of the problem, or he may just listen to the
person vent. Theres no limit to the number of visitations.
He may also recommend a prescription, which a physician then
writes, although he tries to avoid pushing too many medications and
believes in a combination of medication and counseling.
In Lafayette Hill, Leah and other staff may place a referral to a
psychologist or a mental health nurse practitioner, inform the doctor
or brainstorm as a team to help make the resident feel validated and
supported.
In Sewickley, psychiatry professionals regularly visit the Sturgeon
Health Care Center and Star Points Building personal care residence
and assist with residents from retirement living who may not be able
to easily leave campus. Nursing staff are trained to identify problems
and make appropriate referrals.
Wellness Opportunities
Physical exercise can improve self-esteem and mood and
is an opportunity to socialize with others. Endorphins released
during exercise create feelings of euphoria, so its more than just a
psychological change, its chemical.
Scientific studies show working out increases the chemicals in the
brain that support and prevent degeneration of the hippocampus,
which is an important part of the brain for memory and learning.
Cardiovascular exercise can create new brain cells and improve
overall brain performance, according to a Huffington Post article
(http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/27/mental-health-
benefits-exercise_n_2956099.html).
In Elizabethtown, residents can participate in health and
wellness programs that target the topics of stress management,
healthy aging, relaxation, meditation, diet, exercise, reframing,
time management, coping skills, humor, journaling, hobbies,
Spring 2015
relationships, communication and aromatherapy. They can use the
Masonic Life Center or one of three pools on campus, as well as
almost eight miles of walking paths.
In Sewickley, residents can visit the Barley Wellness Center
for personal coaching or participate in classes such as Fit for Life,
stretching or water exercise. They can also attend Allegheny General
Healths Healthy Living Series or Genesis Rehab programs each
month. The campus includes an indoor pool and walking paths.
In Lafayette Hill, the Wellness Center is open 24 hours a day,
and fitness classes are offered weekly through an outside contractor.
Residents also participate in the annual senior games.
In Warminster, staff lead a daily exercise class at 9:30 a.m. and
a wellness group at 11 a.m. in the personal care area. DVDs are
available featuring tai chi and other exercises.
In Dallas, residents have access to an on-site fitness center and
classes, such as Tai Chi for Arthritis or Nordic Walking, as well as
the Healthier Selves series which features local experts covering
various topics. Residents also benefit from a close relationship with
Misericordia University, located next to Masonic Village. The college
offers a pool, fitness center, classes and walking track.
A Changing Paradigm
In his eight years at Masonic Village, Dr. Lee has seen an
increase in the number of people seeking his services. People are
a lot more accepting of seeing a psychologist, he said. The stigma
has lessened, and theres a lot more awareness.
Everyone is a package, and the package isnt complete unless
it is all taken care of, Cindy Stefl, director of resident services at
Masonic Village at Sewickley said. Peoples physical health is better
if their mental health is taken care of, and their mental health is better
if theyre taken care of physically.
Leaving a mental health issue untreated can cause a lot of
distress to people and their families, and can ultimately hurt their
physical health as well, Leah said.
Its never a sign of weakness to ask for help, Rev. Tim said. All
of us from time to time need someone to give us support and care.

 Helping a Loved One Address Mental Health Issues
Between visits or phone calls, as a family member or
caregiver, you may notice a change in your loved one. Simply
asking, Whats wrong? may not address the issue, especially if
your loved one doesnt think or realize anything is wrong. Below,
Masonic Villages staff offer some advice to help identify signs
of mental health issues and how to address them, even if you
live far away.
According to Dr. Jess Lee, psychologist at Masonic Village
at Elizabethtown, if your loved one has been really depressed for
more than two weeks or has lost interest in things they used to
find enjoyable, they may be experiencing depression. They may
seem helpless or hopeless, tearful or even express not wanting
to move forward in life.
In addition to emotional changes, Leah DiPersio, director
of social services at Masonic Village at Lafayette Hill, said
family members or caregivers may observe behavioral changes.
If you notice any of the following signs or symptoms, you are
encouraged to talk with staff at Masonic Village:
Change in eating habits
Change in sleeping habits
Decreased energy
Memory loss or confusion
Increased agitation or anger
Irritability
Neglect of self-care
Chronic aches
8 Village Voice
Once the issue or problem is recognized, staff can help
encourage your loved one to become more involved in activities
or just talk with them. Family members and caregivers can do
the same.
First and most important, you must be an active listener
and validate your loved ones feelings, Kirk Rakos, therapeutic
recreation supervisor at Masonic Village at Elizabethtown, said.
Find an activity you can do together that provides your family
member a purpose. Introduce variety and spontaneity into
your visits. Visit on different days. Instead of talking about the
weather, go outside for a change of scenery, sunshine (vitamin
D) and fresh air. Make the visit about them and the things they
like, not just the news or weather.
Families are encouraged to visit regularly if they are able
to, Ann Beck, recreation director at Masonic Village at Sewickley,
said. We suggest they encourage residents not to self-isolate,
but to join others in social situations, leave their rooms and spend
time in common areas with others. We recommend families
and friends join residents in group activities and even to go on
community outings planned by the Recreation Department.
One of the easiest ways for families and friends to help
when they are away is to make phone calls just to chat and
reminder calls to alert them of special activities or events on
campus, Karen Hammond, recreation supervisor/concierge
at Masonic Village at Sewickley, said. If they are local, they
are encouraged to make as many visits as possible and help to
introduce their loved one to other residents. Sometimes families
get better results because the resident is familiar with them,
whereas a resident may not be themselves with staff initially.
Partners in Specialized Heart Surgery
For patients recovering from open heart surgery or
awaiting a heart transplant, a ventricular assist device (VAD)
a mechanical device that takes over the pumping action of
the heart for either one or both ventricles was traditionally
inserted to temporarily support the heart. In the last five years,
VADs have become a long-term treatment option for those
with advanced heart failure who are not candidates for a heart
transplant (typically over age 70).
Once patients recover from surgery to insert this device,
they require assistance with learning to maintain the device and
dress the wound, as well as physical and occupational therapy
assistance which is better provided in a rehabilitation setting,
rather than a hospital. To fill this need, Masonic Village at
Elizabethtown has been named Lancaster General Healths first
preferred provider for patients recovering from a VAD insertion.
Enabling patients to leave the hospital soon after surgery,
Masonic Villages Transitional Care Unit (TCU) provides a
clinical setting which can meet their specialized needs. Beyond
traditional rehabilitation, care for these patients includes the
use of state-of-the-art technology, close physician oversight,
coordination with Lancaster General Healths VAD Clinic and
continuous staff training.
Physician and nursing staff have been specifically trained to
care for individuals with VADs, while addressing the needs of their
families and caregivers, as well, Laurie Shive, nurse manager,
said. A team of physical, occupational and speech therapists,
combined with therapeutic recreation, dietary, pastoral care,
social services and other staff help patients recover physically
and mentally, and we provide them and their families with the
Spring 2015
proper guidance to care for themselves at home.
The first patient recovering from a VAD insertion arrived at
Masonic Village the end of January, and a second patient who
had a new device placed arrived in February. After several days
of rest, patients start daily physical, occupational and speech
therapy. A VAD relieves symptoms like shortness of breath, and
with therapy, patients can learn to adapt to a normal level of
activity.
Transitional Care Unit
Masonic Village at Elizabethtowns TCU includes 28 private
and 20 semi-private suites. The newly renovated suites include a
flat-screen TV with cable, telephone, wireless Internet access, small
refrigerator, electric lift chair and bed. Patients enjoy served-to-
order entres in a country kitchen dining area or in their rooms.
The TCU offers physical, speech and occupational therapy
for individuals with injuries and illnesses such as orthopedic
conditions, total joint replacement, amputation, strokes, cardiac
events, respiratory conditions, complications from diabetes and
infections. Patients have access to state-of-the-art rehabilitation
equipment, therapy and technology; an emergency call system;
and adaptive devices. Access to a laboratory and X-rays on-site
also helps prevent readmission to a hospital.
Partnering with Lancaster General Health is another way
for us to extend our mission by offering a service that is needed
in the community, Beth Bossert, chief operating officer of
health care services, said. We have the accommodations and
staff, and in turn, are able to benefit patients and their families,
Lancaster General Health and Masonic Village.

 Health Update
by J. Kenneth Brubaker, M.D., C.M.D.,
medical director, Masonic Village at Elizabethtown
Prevention of Strokes Can Prevent Memory Loss
The second most common cause for memory loss is cerebral
vascular accidents (CVAs) or strokes (a term more commonly used
by non-medically trained persons). Historically, CVAs have been
defined as a sudden decline in brain function that can be manifested
by the loss of upper and lower extremity function on one side of the
body and frequently associated with speech difficulty.
Diagnosing Brain Diseases
In the mid-1970s, with the invention of the computer axial
tomography, or CAT scanning, the ability to make quicker and more
accurate diagnoses of brain diseases increased exponentially.
Approximately five years later, another historically significant
brain assessment instrument, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
was invented. Both the CAT and MRI have enabled researchers to
develop a better understanding of the numerous changes that take
place in the brain secondary to aging and diseases.
CAT scanning of the brain uses a series of X-rays of the head
taken from many different directions and forms a composite picture
of the entire brain. Unfortunately, one of the recently recognized
concerns with CAT scanning is the high dose of radiation exposure,
and there is increasing caution in the overuse of CAT studies. On
the other hand, MRI equipment does not expose one to radiation.
An MRI uses magnetic and radio waves to produce an accurate
image of the organ that is being evaluated. One disadvantage is the
increased cost of an MRI study.
Risk Factors
About 500,000 Americans experience new or recurrent CVAs
each year. Many of these individuals experience some decline in
memory. Risk factors for CVAs include age, sex, heredity and lifestyle
choices. CVA risks increase with age, doubling for each decade
after the age of 55. Men are more likely to experience a CVA than
women. Obesity, hypertension, elevated cholesterol, smoking and a
sedentary lifestyle all contribute to an increased risk for a CVA.
Recent research has consistently demonstrated that heredity
plays a much smaller role in contributing to CVAs than lifestyle
choices. Improved lifestyle choices include regular exercise; avoiding
over eating; consuming more fruits, vegetables, nuts and low-fat milk
products; and consuming less salt.
10 Village Voice
Focus on Blood Pressure
In addition to lifestyle choices, blood pressure management is
very important. There is a clearly established relationship between
elevated blood pressure and CVAs.
Recently, three leading groups of heart experts have changed
their previously recommended blood pressures for American adults.
All adults younger than 60 years of age should keep their blood
pressures less than 140/90. The cardiology groups also recommended
guidelines of 130/80 for those with heart disease who have already
had a heart attack, CVA or mini-CVA, arterial blockage in their legs or
an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Those 60 years and older should keep
their blood pressures less than 150/90. These recommendations were
based on reviewing numerous published medical research articles, not
merely on a consensus group of experts.
In spite of these guidelines, concerns remain about those over
80 years of age, the most rapidly growing population in America.
Since there is very sparse research in the 80-plus age group, many
geriatricians have recognized that this group of older adults will need
to have individualized blood pressure goals that are based on their
ability to tolerate blood pressures less than the 150/90. For example,
some older adults will experience significant adverse symptoms such
as dizziness or lightheadedness if their blood pressures are lower
than 160/90. In spite of these higher acceptable blood pressures in
adults 80-plus, many will continue to live an active and high quality
of life that goes well into their 90s without any adverse effects.
Memory loss due to vascular damages in the brain is one of the
few types of memory loss that we can prevent by maintaining good
control of our blood pressure and making good lifestyle choices no
matter what age we may be. It is never too late to start swimming
and walking daily, change the type of food we consume and avoid
overusing salt. It is never too late to stop smoking, and it is not too
late to start losing some weight if one is obese.
Finally, the lifestyle changes recommended for the prevention
of memory loss due to CVAs are equally applicable to Alzheimers
disease. There has been a plethora of recently published medical
literature validating that late onset memory loss due to Alzheimers
disease is preventable.

 New Clubs on the Block
Photography Club Focuses on Making Pictures
Masonic Village at Elizabethtown resident Roger Fords
first camera was a Kodak Instamatic, and he could do more
with that camera as a knee biter than he can with some
modern cameras. At age 16, his dad gave him a Zeiss Ikon
from World War II. It had no light meter, and distances were
measured in meters. Both cameras helped him learn about
basic photography, something he feels people may be missing
out on today.
I wish the new mirrorless cameras had the optical
viewfinder my old Instamatic had, he said. I really think being
able to see and frame a picture is vital. Sometimes the new
cameras that rely on an LCD [liquid-crystal-display] dont let you
do that operation very well, especially in sunlight. I wish there
were more everyday cameras with optical viewfinders.
Rogers passion for photography and his desire to inspire
others to discover its allure led him to start a Photography Club
on campus. I want people to gain experience doing it, he said.
If the picture turns out, thats icing on the cake. If nothing else,
its in focus. Its just fun.
The first meeting in March covered equipment and how to
use it. In the future, hell concentrate on light, picture format
and design. He plans to show some of his photos (a few of
which are shown above) and encourages people to bring their
own to share their inspiration and thought process. There will
be time for open discussion when people can offer constructive
criticism.
The club meets the first Wednesday of each month at
6 p.m. in the Grand Lodge Hall Assembly Room. Anyone who is
14 Village Voice
interested may attend. Theres no need to RSVP.
Roger took photos throughout his life including many of his
two daughters (which was often an experiment in composure),
until he became ill and had to take a break from photography
and much else in his life. When he was able to start taking
photos again, he visited parks near his home in State College
to see nature in its regular state. He advanced his skills from
taking a photo with a flower in the middle to filling the frame
and designing the photo.
Photography is something that can be done even when
youre not 100 percent healthy, he said. Its about making
pictures, not taking pictures. I like to walk around, look and see
what says to me, This could be a great photo. I wait for a good
subject.
Thats exactly what he did when he spotted a deer while
outside exploring one day. He waited patiently for the deer to
expose itself in the ideal position, which was amidst two fields
divided by telephone poles. As the doe foraged, Roger hunted
her with his camera until the shadows of the early afternoon
were at the perfect angle, and she edged into the right spot. The
photos composition was a harmony of light, lines, textures and
subject. See the photo above.
Roger moved to Masonic Village in November 2014, and
hes excited to get outside and explore the manicured grounds.
The 1,400-acre campus, with its ornate architecture, Formal
Gardens, ponds, fields and woodland, is a photographers
paradise.
Pilots Club Takes Off
It has been said that if a pilot walks into a crowded room
and discovers another pilot, suddenly there is no one else in the
room.
With guest speakers, scheduled trips and plenty of social
interaction, the Pilots Club at Masonic Village at Elizabethtown
is the perfect place for those interested in aviation.
From overhearing and participating in many conversations
about flying with fellow residents, I got the idea to start the club,
Louis Johnson, creator of the Pilots Club, said. I got quite a
response, and 25 residents signed up.
The club was started in October and currently has 35
members. Anyone who is a licensed pilot and looking to share
their memories, hear from others and catch up on current air
regulations is welcome.
Spring 2015
Everyone wears a nametag to encourage conversation
and as an opportunity to meet each other, Louis said. Its
great because we all get to learn from one another and talk
about our past.
Since its establishment, the club has hosted speakers from
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and executives from
the Harrisburg International Airport. With discussion periods
during each meeting, members have an opportunity to ask
speakers questions, as well as learn from fellow members. A
number of qualified speakers within the club have also given
excellent presentations.
The club hopes to organize trips to various local aviation
museums and airports in the future.
The Pilots Club meets on the first Monday of every month
at 1:30 p.m. in the Keystone Room located at the Clubhouse.
Those interested in joining the Pilots Club or looking for more
information may call Louis at 717-361-3912.

 Staying Active with Racquetball
Two racquets, one ball and a court are all Masonic Village
at Dallas residents Harold Hartley, Jr. and Allen Al Henninger
(shown l-r above) need to have a good time.
For the past two years, Harold and Al have been playing
racquetball together using nearby Misericordia Universitys
indoor courts. Typically playing every Monday, Wednesday and
Friday morning for an hour and a half, both Harold and Al have
experienced several health benefits from playing racquetball in
addition to the entertainment.
Its a good aerobic workout, Harold said. Im still alive,
and I enjoy being able to do physical things. I do try to limit my
playing time though, since I am 84 years old.
While Harold has been playing racquetball since the early
1970s, Al just began two years ago when he decided to ask
Harold if he could tag along to one of his games.
He had an extra racquet and picked me up the next
morning, Al said. From there on out, I loved it. I wasnt any
good, of course, but I felt the exercise was good for me.
Although he fell in love with the sport, Al still needed to
learn the skills and techniques it took to play full games. After
16 Village Voice
he was dedicated to attending the practices, Harold started
teaching Al the basics. After that, he moved on to teaching him
more advanced skills.
I found a great mentor in Harold, Al said. I felt he was
never easy on me, but he might have thought otherwise!
Al then started to bring his own equipment to their meetings
and show up early to work on the skills Harold had demonstrated
for him. After a year, he began to see some progress.
I actually started to win a few games, Al said.
He also started noticing some of his own health benefits.
I am a diabetic, and since moving here and being involved
in walking, yoga, golf, lifting and especially racquetball, Ive seen
my weight drop 20 pounds and my blood sugar come down, Al
said. Good health makes you enjoy retirement more.
For anyone who wants to give racquetball a try, Harold and
Al have a few suggestions.
All you have to do is find someone to play with and stick
with it, Harold said.
I recommend finding a mentor like I did or just visiting a
court, Al said. People are friendly and open to new players or
experimenters.
Besides racquetball, Al enjoys playing golf, trying his hand at
blackjack at the local casino and attending local sporting events.
Harold also spends his time hunting, studying genealogy
and with his children and grandchildren.
Although they have slightly different interests outside of
racquetball, Harold and Al like to stay active and both enjoy
living at Masonic Village.
The facilities are nice and all of your maintenance is taken
care of, Harold said. The residents here are fantastic, too. Its
easy to be active here.
My wife and I get together with some other residents several
times a week, Al said. We go out to dinner, play games or just
sit around and talk about the good life.

Sunday, noon to 7 p.m.
Farm Market staff spent about two months searching
south central Pennsylvania for the best-tasting locally-produced
ice cream (a tough task indeed) and chose Trickling Springs
Creamery. The creamery opened in 2001 in Chambersburg,
Pennsylvania, and makes their ice cream in micro-batches to
maintain the quality and consistency of the flavors and textures.
Flavors include a variety of basics, as well as seasonal options
like blueberry, peaches n cream, Dutch apple, pumpkin and
eggnog. The peanut butter and black cherry were among the
favorites of the Farm Market staff.
Trickling Springs Creamery will also supply the Farm Market
with glass-bottled milk. It offers super-premium, wholesome
milk from grass-fed cows without the use of synthetic hormones
and processes the milk using a low temperature pasteurization

Elizabethtown, PA 17022 Mechanicsburg, PA

At the annual Enchanted Evening in Sewickley, ladies spent An Evening in Paris. The Star Points
Assembly Room was transformed into an elegant setting with French influences. After makeovers,
thanks to the Primpers (retirement living residents), the women had individual photos taken and
enjoyed dinner and entertainment.
Men had a party of their own with pizza and beer. Thanks to all the staff, residents from across
campus and volunteers, including members of Rainbow Girls, Brothers of the Trowel, Masonic
lodges and Order of the Eastern Star chapters, who made both events extra special!
