Thursday afternoon,
exactly 40 years to the date after the first resident moved into St.
Clara's Manor in Lincoln, the nursing home on Fifth Street
celebrated with a launch of 40 red balloons, a chamber ribbon-cut
and a reception.

At 2 p.m. several of the residents
gathered in front of the building ...
|
... and launched their balloons. |
|
|
With clear blue skies above, the red balloons
were quite a sight.
|
St. Clara's administrator, Mike Eads, spoke briefly
before cutting the ribbon on the next 40 years. |
|
Chamber representatives, St. Clara's
staff and visitors were on hand for the ribbon-cut.
|
Inside there was live piano music, and later in
the afternoon a live bango club offered entertainment as well.
|
|
Before there was a St. Clara's Manor,
there was a St. Clara's Hospital.
|
This is a fact that St. Clara's resident
Don Eimer knows all too well, because he was born there. |
