WELCOME TO KIRBY PINES
WELCOME TO OUR NEW WEBSITE!

It’s A New Year
Happy New Year! This year Kirby Pines
is expanding our Website to include
more articles, photos and interesting bits
of information. On the website you’ll
be able to keep up with how Kirby
residents helped us go green in 2015
by starting a recycling club, which now
collects upwards of 5,000 pounds of
paper and cardboard weekly. 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.

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!

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.

What’s New In The
New Year!
Happy New Year! The Oasis is a great place
to begin your New Year’s
resolution to feel better. Diet, rest, and exercise are keys to better health. Kirby Pines
offers many opportunities to improve strength, endurance, balance and cardio-vascular
health. Our four exercise classes supported by the Arthritis Foundation include Tai
Chi, Arthritis Exercise (Stand and Sit). Water Aerobics, and Walking with Ease (a six
week class that will be offered in the spring). These classes are tailored to your needs
and having arthritis is not a requirement to take a class. A resident led class that has
been together for years meets three times a week (Monday-Wednesday-Friday) in the
Performing Arts Center.

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.

“The true measure of a man
is not what he dreams
but what he aspires to be
- a dream is nothing
without action.”
-Mike Norton
Prince McLemore
A PA S S I O N F O R K N O W L E D G E
In taking the measure of Prince McLemore, one must become
familiar with the life of this young boy and his journey toward
fulfillment of an ideal laid out by his Mother. 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!

Chaplain’s COrner
from Don Johnson, Kirby Pines Chaplain
God and Me
Someone said, “The hurrier I go the behinder I get!” That
happens all too often. 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.
Till next time,

George Bizet, the composer of Carmenarguably the most popular Romantic
opera in the canon-wrote his Brilliant
Symphony No. 1 just after his 17th
birthday. The Beauty of this precocious
work caused a sensation, and Bizet
found himself compared favorably to a
young Mozart. Lost for 8 decades, it was
given its first performance in 1935, and
has been a gem of the orchestral repertoire ever since. Elliot Carter, a major
force in American music who continued to compose almost until his recent
death at the age of 103, announced himself to the world as a symphonist with
his tonal, patriotic, even giddy Symphony No 1. This premiered at the height
of WW II, a remarkable creation from
a true American original. The beloved
artist MIDORI, a violin powerhouse
since her own teenage years, returns to
IRIS to perform Mendelssohn’s Violin
Concerto. Bus leaves at 1:30 pm.
