• Mother's Day Tribute and Wishes
    Greetings and Thanks to All Mothers
    from CEO Karen Klein

    by Karen Klein
    Mother’s Day is just around the corner, so I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate motherhood and thank all the Mothers and Grandmothers who visit us at Silver Planet. Most especially...
  • Celebrating Grandparents Day
    First observed nationally in 1979
    Marian McQuade, of Fayette County, West Virginia, founded the holiday in hopes that such an observance might persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage of their grandparents.
  • Artists Awarded NEA’s Heritage Fellowships
    Folk and traditional artists honored for their contributions
    Eleven winners have been selected for 2009, most of them older adults working in diverse traditional art forms such as zydeco, willow basketry, dance, and Yoruba sacred song and drumming.
  • Granting Wishes for the Elderly
    Honoring seniors
    After five years and 1,067 wishes, the Twilight Wish Foundation is still busy taking requests. “At any given point, we have 125 open wishes,” says founder Cass Forkin.
  • Back in the Day . . .
    A simpler time
    Ah, the “old days”! How many of these do you remember?
