Florida has seven state veteran nursing homes, we visited all of them. Today’s visit to the Sandy Nininger Veterans Nursing Home in Pembroke Pines, Florida was filled with activities. There was a Christmas/Hanukkah party along with a beach volleyball game which pitted some schoolchildren volunteers against the veterans. What a fun time connecting with all of these energetic veterans as they sat on the sidelines and cheered on their team. So many of them shared a story or two with me of their life. It is an honor to be able to talk with them and share these precious moments.
