Christmas stockings were then handed out by staff to everyone. Bev Close made sure everyone received a gift and by the look of the smiles and some tears, it was a great present. John was Santa Claus, with his helper Lisa, and Sharron was dressed as an Elf. All the gifts were labelled as they opened them and any residents needing assistance were helped by staff.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The weather was horrific outside but inside the staff showed tremendous dedication on making the day almost perfect for everyone during the stormy holiday.

It was delicious. Residents had a great time during the paint and sing activity. Each resident was given their own house to paint.
