Honoring Our Heroes at Bickford of Burlington We had the privilege of celebrating the incredible Veterans who call Bickford home! We started the day by taking our heroes out for a delicious breakfast treat at Perkins, followed by a special craft activity where a few of our lovely ladies created heartfelt “Thank You” cards for our veterans. Yesterday afternoon, during our Ice Cream Sundae Social, we presented these cards and hosted a touching ceremony. Our Activity Coordinator shared a speech, and each Veteran received a certificate in recognition of their service to our country. It was a beautiful day filled with gratitude, laughter, and reflection. To all who have served — we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your courage, sacrifice, and dedication. You are the reason we enjoy the freedoms we have today. Happy Veterans Day from all of us at Bickford of Burlington! #veteransday #bickfordofburlington #honoringourheroes #thankyouveterans
