Warm Thanks To Cold-Weather Friends
Last month Cape Cod Senior Residences at Pocasset suffered some water damage to the community due to a frozen sprinkler valve. The damage affected only one resident’s apartment, (but) over a dozen residents were displaced. For safety purposes, power was shut off on the affected wing and residents in need stayed with caring families or other residents. All of these folks were back in their units by noon the next day.

In addition to providing an update for so many kind and concerned friends of the Community, we want to send our sincere thanks to so many who helped in a time of need. The Town of Bourne and, in particular, the Fire Department, was wonderful in their swift, professional actions. Both Royal Health Group and Bourne Manor offered their services for those who possibly would be displaced, as well as the always supportive Housing Assistance Corporation.

Sometimes it takes a “crisis” to find the best in us all and the community as a whole came through with kindness, generosity and professionalism.

In true appreciation,
Michael G. LeBrun,
Executive Director
