How Lancaster County retirement communities found bright spots in a year of challenges

At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, residents of Landis Homes would line a roadway into the Lititz campus on Friday afternoons, cheering on the retirement community’s workers with signs and noisemakers as they left or arrived for work. When the campus resident council suggested a more permanent show of appreciation, Landis Homes residents donated over $10,000 toward a Garden of Gratitude, a new park on two-thirds of an acre featuring walkways, greenery and a gazebo offering views of surrounding farmland. Not every retirement community has such a tangible symbol of gratitude, but many share the sentiment. “The pandemic has brought out an appreciation of how good we had it before and has been a reminder of how important community and family are,” says Jonathan Hollinger, CEO of Pleasant View Communities.

What can we do? : How local senior communities take a look at diversity, racial justice

It’s been nearly a year since Marilyn Langeman joined around 80 fellow residents of Landis Homes for a silent, outdoor vigil following the death of George Floyd. “A number of people who were there, afterward, said we need to continue our work,” Langeman says. “We decided to begin with education and examining our own racism that we maybe don’t recognize.” An anti-racism resident group formed at Landis and now meets monthly, primarily via Zoom. Members have added a related bookshelf to the library and have amassed a virtual mailing list of residents who are given updates with suggestions for books and online courses.
