JEFFERSON â At 106, Neoma Mathison takes pleasure in simple things.
She enjoys salt on her eggs â she keeps a special shaker in her room â and getting her hair done. And, she said, she loves to dance.
Neoma celebrated her birthday in November. The occasion was marked by a large gathering of family members who appeared at a window at Alden Estates where she lives â a short-term rehabilitation, transitional care and post-acute services facility. They were there to wish her well and take part in her special day, facility Activities Director Lanita Leatherberry said.
The occasion was celebrated through a window to keep Neoma and other Alden Estates residents safe from COVID-19.
