Santa's Senior Helpers Ensuring Bright Holidays
Kaitlin McDaniel, the owner, visited Maryanne and Dick Newman at their home in Plymouth Thursday. The Newmans are in their 90s and welcome the help.
"We don't drive," Maryanne said. "We have walkers. We've slowed down at our age."
McDaniel helped with two holiday tasks: addressing the Christmas cards that Maryanne sends to every person in their living facility, and baking a fruitcake, which is really more of Dick's holiday tradition.
"I used to buy a tin, had a three-pound loaf in it, and that would last until the Fourth of July," he said.
Senior Helpers visit the Newmans three days a week to do various household chores.
