Etta Hellyer

90 yrs old

Career: Psychiatric nursing, teaching, daycare & special ed.

"Just don't give up, try and try again. Don't be afraid of change and jumping into fields that you hadn't planned on doing."

Henry Martens

95 yrs old

Career: Photography (worked for Churchill during the war)

About his wife of 69 years, Frieda: "Never had a fight and that's her fault. Best thing I ever did."

Friends Etta and Henry will be skydiving to help raise funds for Tabor's Capital Campaign initiative, but that’s not all! Both families will be joining them – 4 generations to be exact. With our current Complex Care home needing to be replaced, we will be building a new ‘Centre for Living’ based on the ‘Household Model’ of residential care.

Why does this matter, you ask?

“1 in 3 people over 85 will require care in their lifetime."

Help us give quality care to the generation that paved the way for our community today. Help us take seniors care to the next level where residents experience more personal and active connections in a multi-functional space that feels like home.

Will you join our friends in their fight for quality seniors care?

THANK YOU TO HENRY AND ETTA'S EVENT SPONSORS
