By David Ammons, chief executive officer of Springmoor Life Care Retirement Community
When I was a boy, “Mr. Smith”
was already using a cane. He was funny and odd—a popular guy at church—and we
admired him for his devotion to his faith, and to his wife and family. When I was
a teenager, he remained a fixture of our community, staying involved in Boy
Scouts, and attending every North Carolina State University football game. When
I was a young man—and the executive director of Springmoor Life Care RetirementCommunity—“Mr. Smith” walked determinedly through my office door. The usually
chipper man looked determined, took a seat and demanded my attention.
