It’s no question who rules the halls of the Greensburg Care Center.
Donning red crowns and capes given out Friday afternoon, residents Gary Sanner, 78, and Anna Carnes, 104, received their official titles of Valentine’s Day king and queen.
“They were thrilled,” said Jennifer Ezykowsky, activities director at the nursing home.
The titles were bestowed to Sanner, who also received a box of chocolates, and Carnes, who was given flowers, after residents voted on who should be crowned. The event was just the start of a weekend filled with Valentine’s Day celebrations, just one of several efforts by staff to boost morale during the covid-19 pandemic.
