News Release for the Week of December
11, 2017
Jan Vasseur, our
Jan’s Exercise instructor, has been with the Enfield Senior Center longer than
any of the current staff! She has a loyal following of students who enjoy an
amusing back and forth volley of laughs as they work away at exercises to stay
agile and fit. Jan’s beautiful smile, contagious laugh and good humor have
brought a lift to all of us. She has now decided to get her exercise by keeping
up with an adorable grandson and helping her family. Thank you, Jan for all you
have brought to us. You will be missed by students and staff alike. We wish you
happy days ahead!
