Of course activities and events will continue to be available to you in print form, but just imagine being able to direct family and friends miles away to the Kirby website to see more photos that the Pinecone can publish, or to learn interesting facts about the city and museums we visit each year. Speaking of museums, in 2016 Kirby Pines will become the only retirement community in the state of Tennessee to offer Virtual Field Trips. Each virtual field trip is a live and interactive presentation that connects residents face to face with interesting people and places across the United States. The first Virtual Field Trip, January 21st, will connect us live with Jeff Ubin at the FDR Presidential Museum & Library. at Kirby Pines You can get additional information by visiting the Kirby Pines Website at www.kirbypines.com. Also going live the beginning of this New Year is the construction start of the “Bistro”. Expected to take about ninety days to complete, we can all look forward to a new place to eat within Kirby Pines. In addition to the new and improved dining venue will be the installation of new furniture in each of the building’s corridors. Yes, 2016, plans to be a big year for Kirby Pines, our current residents and the many new residents awaiting the newly renovated apartments and garden homes. Happy New Year! Michael Escamilla, Executive Director, Kirby Pines ON THE PINECONE COVER Kirby Pines Gets The Judicial Seal Of Approval Judge Ann Pugh made history in 1978 when she became the first female judge in Shelby County and only one out of 12 female judges in the state of Tennessee. She was born and raised in Blytheville, AR and attended Arkansas State University for her undergraduate and graduate degrees. She moved to Memphis in 1970 and graduated from the University of Memphis Law School in 1975. She served as a public defender and prosecutor before being appointed to the bench. Judge Pugh was re-elected five times. In August of 2010, after thirty-four years on the bench, she decided to put down the gavel and travel. She plans on moving to Kirby Pines in the near future, so with our new website launching January 1st, we thought we would also introduce the future of our community and feature Retired Judge Pugh. •2• The Pinecone | January 2016 Kirby Pines Retirement Community is managed by: B O A R D O F D I R E C TO R S Dr. James Latimer, Chairman Mr. Rudy Herzke, President Mr. Berry Terry, Secretary/Treasurer Mr. Larry Braughton Rev.

Ways to Help Ease ARTHRITIS Arthritis is inflammation and stiffness of the joints. There are many forms of arthritis but the most common is osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease that affects approximately 27 million Americans. It is caused by aging joints, injury, and obesity. It occurs when the protective cartilage on the ends of your bones wears down over time. Osteoarthritis gradually worsens and there are no cures that exist. Osteoarthritis can cause damage to any joint in your body, but the main joints that are affected are the joints in your hands, hips, knees, and spine. Symptoms that are seen are pain, tenderness, stiffness, loss of flexibility, grating sensation, and bone spurs. These symptoms are most often developed gradually because the cartilage that cushions the bones in your joints is gradually deteriorating. Some key factors that can cause this deteriorating is old age, obesity, joint injuries, genetics, bone deformities, and other diseases. There are many preventable actions that can be done to help prevent osteoarthritis. The preventions include maintaining your weight, exercising, eating right, and treating and avoiding injuries. Controlling your weight is the most valuable action that could be done. Being overweight strains your joints which causes the cartilage to wear away. Increasing your physical activity can help prevent osteoarthritis by strengthening the muscles around the joints to help protect and provide support. Exercising can increase the lubrication to the cartilage of the joint which reduces deterioration. Being active can also help control your weight. All of the preventions go hand and hand. Staying healthy is important as you get older and can contribute to a long happy life. Please join Katie Liberowski on January 11th at 10am in the PAC for the Healthy Learning Lecture on this topic. If you have additional questions, please contact Jason Sparrow OTD, OTR/L at 901-366-1819.

He had no male role model in the home because his Father passed away when Prince was 5 years old, but his Uncle William lived near by and was a positive force in the child’s life. His mother worked outside the home and, perforce, Prince was the “homemaker” at a very early age. His duties included the daily chores of sweeping, polishing furniture, washing and drying dishes, and laundry. Even so, Prince learned to read at an early age and books became his passion. Prince joined Calvary Presbyterian Church and was held in high regard by the Elders, and he was appointed a Deacon when he was 21 years old. When he moved to Toledo, Ohio, the Pastor nominated him to join a missions group of young people who traveled to Gabon, Africa to build bridges and similar structures for the local churches. As many helped him during the anxious years of approaching adult status, Prince was able to help meet the needs of fellow Christians in Gabon. It was his introduction to the satisfaction gained from physical labor for the “Glory of God”. The “stars were aligning” (so to speak) for Prince when Joliet Junior College hired him as their first full-time Black Professor. Serendipitously, he happened upon an article and picture in the local newspaper about a Black Physical Therapist, whose name is now Elsie McLemore – his wife and mother of their son. His poems to Elsie celebrate all that she means to him – life was good indeed. Northwestern U. awarded Prince a PhD. in Education with a major interest in African American History. A Tenured Professor, he taught for 26 years at Governors State U. as Chairman, Division of Education. Social Theory was his consuming interest, studying the interplay of political science, history, economics, and philosophy. He also was past President of the Illinois Council of Social Studies, and founding President of Phi Delta Kappa professional fraternity at Governors State U. Prince authored many books and thus became acquainted with the subtle publishing barriers faced by black authors, but he persevered, and overcame. He admired the courage of Reverend Martin Luther King and his determination to be the public face of those working for equal opportunity. Prince counted it a privilege to know Dr. King and was brought low by his assassination. Determined, tenacious, focused - Prince and his life will be measured by what he has accomplished in the face of daunting entrenched barriers. Impressive. - Jacqueline Besteman, Resident It’s quite obvious how much Elsie still means to Prince! The Pinecone | January 2016 •7• KIRB Y UB CL KIRB Y PIN NO.

Busyness crowds out priority. Our choices push aside what should be first. Then, no matter how fast we run or how hard we act, we fall farther behind than we ever imagined. Maybe these following words can help us see ourselves as we are and lead us to plan our lives differently. One day the Lord had a job for me, But I had so much to do I said, “You’d better get somebody else, Or wait till I get through.” I don’t know how the Lord came out, But He seemed to get along. But deep down in my accusing heart I knew I’d done Him wrong. One day I needed the Lord, And I needed Him right away; But He never answered me a word, Yet I thought I heard Him say, “Friend, I’ve got so much to do, You’d better get somebody else, Or wait till I get through.” Now if the Lord has a job for me, I never try to shirk; I quit whatever I’m doing To do the good Lord’s work. My plans can wait awhile, At least till I get through, For no one else can do the job The Lord’s laid out for you. Thankfully the Lord is not like us. He is never too busy to help us in our need. We should strive to be more like Him. God can accomplish His will without our help, but He graciously chooses to include us in His plan. He lets His grace, love and power flow through us to others. We are special in His sight. We have been created as His “workmanship”… “for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:10) In the NIV the word used is “handiwork.” The New Living Testament says we are His “masterpiece.” In the midst of such greatness we can no longer be too busy for Him. Now is the time to take the necessary steps to follow His path. As we start the New Year may our decisions change for the better…or even the best.
