November 2017—Eden Heights of Olean
Marcein was from the Oswayo Valley, Millport, Pa. She was the daughter of Roy and Eleanor Nelson until she married her first husband Richard “Dick” Perkins. She worked at Galeton Production and has 3 children, Rick (Patti), Fred (Alice) and Kristine Young (Dennis). They bought a dairy farm in West Bingham, Pa and she had a full time job working on the farm. She was very active in the community church and belonged to the Grange. In 1968, the farm was sold and the family moved to Belmont, NY. She drove school bus at Belmont School and kept books for her husband’s business, Perkins Trucking. Widowed in 1974 and eventually moved from Belmont to Franklinville to be near family. There was always Snickers candy bars in the freezer and she loves ice cream. Marcein also worked at the County Home in Machias, as a nurses aide. She met and married Ralph Steele from Jamestown. She lived in Jamestown and drove school bus for Bemus Point School. In 1997 she became a widow again and moved back to Franklinville. She eventually met Robert “Bob” Morgan from Allegany and they lived together for 16 years, until he passed away in June of this year. They lived in Leesburg, Florida but came to Allegany, NY in the summers. She especially loves little children and enjoys spending time with her family, grandchildren and great grandchildren. The grandchildren were fond of her homemade pancakes and usually went to see her on Sunday mornings. When they came to New York in the summer they spent time traveling around to see family and friends. They loved country music and dancing. She liked to have a small garden and especially liked her flowers and plants. If anyone needed nurturing or to be cared for she was al-ways the one willing to help. She has always been a giver, never a taker. When her family brought her back to New York in June we hunted around for an appropriate place for her to live because we did not want her to stay alone. We decided on Eden Heights and we are so pleased with our choice. She seems happy and content when we come to visit. She has made a few friends, keeps busy with enjoying all of the activities offered and says the food is good. We are happy that her needs are being met and the staff is wonderful. It is a relief to her family to know that she is so well taken care of....submitted by her daughter Kristine Young

The Trip to the museum was wonderful! We started our day by leaving Olean Eden Heights at 8:30 a.m. sharp to drive to Jamestown. Arriving at 9:45 to pick up our tour guide “Joe”. He was waiting to take us through Jamestown to all the important sight seeing places. We visited the 3 murals that were on the sides of buildings throughout Jamestown. The guide took us to her childhood home, in Celeron, which was purchased by the Rappaport family and is being maintained to keep Lucys’ legacy alive. From the house we then drove to the Celeron Park to look at the Lucy Statues. The “Old” one looks nothing like Lucy and they have a beautiful “New” statue with Lucy in her polka dot dress. From there we continued to ride through the town of Celeron and back to Jamestown. We arrived back at the museum to go up to the second floor and have our luncheon at the Tropicana. The music was playing in the background while we watched episodes of I Love Lucy, one of the residents’ favorites was the one where she was stomping the grapes, simply hysterical. Our lunch consist-ed of a tossed salad, beef on weck, mixed vegetables, and a ice cream parfait. After our lunch, we continued downstairs and went into the studios, where you could see all the actual scenes of the Lucy episodes. Our last piece of the trip was to tour the Museum, with all the artifacts of the episodes; costumes, her car, jewelry that she wore, it was simply amazing. All of the residents enjoyed themselves and we look forward to returning very soon.

An outing to Red & Trudys
to look at the old pictures of
some of the residents that
use to frequent there quite
often. They were all telling
their stories and memories it
was great to see all of them
laughing and smiling. Then
we topped of the day with the
Cider Mill—who wouldn’t
want cider and donuts!
St. Bonavenuture—Silver Wolves come and visit the residents two to three
times a month. They play Uno, Cribbage, Yahtzee, Bingo and many other
