Princeton Senior Center 

It was a beautiful sunny day.  The drive to Princeton was beautiful it had snowed a few days before and the trees were still all covered with snow.  But the people showed up for the presentation with Katie and Stephanie.  They were ready with their questions and it was a great turn out. Thank you to the Senior Center and everyone who was there.

Oxford Senior Center

So many people here today, many great questions asked and answered.  In talking to the many people here today it was not only the Oxford residents, I spoke with a few that were from Auburn and also a woman from Webster.  Your home is usually one of your largest assets and you want to make sure everything is in order.  At all events everyone is welcome.
