Welcoming St. Andrew’s at Francis Place to the Family
R
esidents of Eureka, Missouri, have been abuzz ever
since St. Andrew’s Resources for Seniors System,
in partnership with the Ursuline Sisters, took over
sponsorship of the Price Memorial retirement community
and renamed it St. Andrew’s at Francis Place.
“St. Andrew’s has such a great reputation,” said a local civic
booster. “We’re very excited about the role they will play
in continuing the great care here and bringing the
community into the future.”
St. Andrew’s at Francis Place provides short-term
Medicare rehab, Medicaid, and skilled nursing in a
dramatic hilltop setting overlooking wooded hills and
valleys. Spacious lawns, gardens, and a large patio allow
residents to feel at ease in their surroundings.
More than the natural settings, residents are enthused
about the changes in the way the community will be
operated. “I’m already impressed with the openness and

A Reflection of How You Live
By Mary Alice Ryan, CEO
W
ith a name like Ryan, people often
kid me about having an Irish wake
when I go. I admit, the thought does
have some appeal, as I’d rather have my friends
and family celebrate my life than simply mourn
my passing.
How do you want people to remember you? It’s a
question all of us should ponder as we get older.
Yet, too often, we fail to write down our
thoughts and wishes, leaving it for others to deal
with during a very stressful time.
I recently discovered a new website,
www.mywonderfullife.com, that makes the
process a lot easier. Created by two women who
dealt with the loss of a spouse, the site provides
a wealth of useful tips and information on
everything from music and readings at the
funeral to examples of non-traditional
ceremonies and even where to find “green”
cemeteries. By creating a free account, you can
describe exactly how you want to go out, and
provide detailed instructions and final private
thoughts and messages to loved ones.
There’s also a
comprehensive
Survivor Checklist
that enumerates the
myriad things your
family needs to do,
the people they need
to notify, the
documents they’ll
need, and many other
items they might
otherwise overlook.

Mark Twain wrote that death and taxes are

the first, but a site like this makes it possible for
anyone to plan ahead for that inevitable day
when you’d like people to remember you the
way you really are.

A Collaborative Impact for Seniors in Need
S
enior Solutions serves more than 3,500
seniors and their family caregivers
annually. With the help of the Lutheran
Foundation, a contract through the St. Louis
Area Agency on Aging, Medicaid, and additional
support from generous donors and foundations,
we provide in-home charitable care to many
low-income St. Louis seniors.
“These older adults have worked their entire life
and contributed to society. Now, in their later
years, they find that they need assistance and
support to continue living independently in a
safe and secure environment,” explained Jolie
Tatum, a Senior Solutions RN. Senior Solutions
helps older adults stay in their home rather than
moving prematurely into a facility. Staying in
their homes is much less expensive, and most
seniors want to live in the place they feel most
comfortable — their own home.
Living at home provides older adults with many
benefits, including familiarity with their
neighborhood, their furnishings, and their
memories. Furthermore, maintaining the older
person in their home rather than placing them
into a Medicaid nursing home costs significantly
less. In addition to offering seniors an option to
live in their own home, in-home care drastically
reduces the cost of their care. Consequently,
in-home care saves society's already limited resources.
“Our charitable in-home care program is
drastically increasing the quality of life for these
seniors in need. It is incredible to see how the
generosity of our donors and foundations makes an
extraordinary and collaborative impact,” said Jolie.

St. Andrew’s Charitable Foundation Highlights:
S
t. Andrew’s Charitable Foundation is excited to share the following news about several
exciting developments over the past few months that will help to support our work with
seniors and bring added exposure to our work.
$50,000 from Lutheran Foundation of St. Louis to help low-income seniors
It is with tremendous gratitude and excitement that we announce that the Lutheran Foundation has
provided a $50,000 grant, which will enable Senior Solutions to serve an additional 25 low-income
seniors with in-home care. The grant will drastically increase the quality of life for St. Louis seniors
by providing medication management, meal preparation, baths, and light cleaning. Perhaps even
more important, this care will allow these seniors to remain in their own homes.
Neighborhood Assistance Tax Credits
We are thrilled to report that we have received Neighborhood Assistance Program Tax Credits
through the Missouri Department of Economic Development. These tax credits will be instrumental
in purchasing a new bus for our low-income communities to replace one that is ready to be retired
after providing nearly a decade of

Harris Frank: A Generous Life
W
inston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we
get. We make a life by what we give.” If that is the case,
then Harris Frank has an extraordinarily blessed life.
Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, Harris made his living in
commercial real estate. In the 90 years he has graced this world with
his enthusiasm and charm, he has generously given his wisdom,
affluence, and experience to bless the lives of others. His generosity
spans far beyond monetary giving. When Harris gets involved in an
organization in which he is passionate, he gives of himself fully. He
has dedicated his time and talents to the City Academy, Danforth
Plant Science Center and Memory Care Home Solutions. Harris is
responsible for conceiving the idea for the Senior Olympics, a
movement that now spans all 50 states and boasts 350,000
participants nationwide. Furthermore, Harris was instrumental in
the growth of Memory Care Home Solutions, a 12-year-old nonprofit
that trains families and other caregivers to take care of people with
Alzheimer’s and keep them in their homes longer. With Harris’ help,
they have grown from serving 125 families annually to over 3,000.
Harris first became involved with St. Andrew’s three years ago when he
was honored as an Ageless Remarkable Saint Louisan. “I was so thrilled
with the Ageless program, I wondered why I hadn’t heard about
St. Andrew’s and what they were doing for seniors before. I wanted to
help spread the word,” he explained. Of course, as with most of his
work, Harris has done much more than spread the word. Since he first
started working with St. Andrew’s, the Foundation has grown its
charitable gifts by 46%, and much of that is due to Harris’ involvement.
He serves a vital role in connecting St. Andrew’s with other influential
and affluent Saint Louisans. He, along with Blanche Touhill, recruited
the first St. Andrew’s Charitable Foundation’s Board, independent of
the St. Andrew’s Resources for Seniors System board.
He is also the Ageless Society Chair, inspiring more than 250
individuals to remain active and relevant in St. Louis through
continued career, education, volunteerism, and/or philanthropy.
Past Ageless honorees have always been members of the
Ageless Society, but
there was no
cultivation of this
group other than
listing them in the
program at the Ageless
Remarkable Saint
Louisans Gala. Now,
with Harris as the
Ageless Society Chair,
we have a free speaker
series, sponsored by
Emerson, along with
other activities and
opportunities. The
speaker series
provides an
opportunity for
St. Andrew’s to get in
front of the St. Louis
community, as well as
potential donors and
Harris Frank
clients, while providing
additional educational opportunities to seniors.
Harris’ dedication has certainly blessed the lives of the 8,700 seniors
that St. Andrew’s serves. “Everyone should make a difference if they
can,” he said. “I spend a great deal of time with charity. It keeps me
sharp and it means a lot to me that I can continue to make a
difference. I feel very lucky to have been around this long. I feel that if
you’re getting dividends out of life, you ought pay them back.”
Fortunately for St. Andrew’s, Harris’ dividends have created a
windfall of generosity and inspiration for our seniors and the
St. Louis community.
“It’s All About Attitude.”
T
om Brozka spends a good deal of his time searching for a
certain type of person to be a home health caregiver… and
that’s good news for Senior Solutions’ clients.
“We work very hard to find quality caregivers, those with the right
attitude toward service and caring,” explained the new Executive
Director of Senior Solutions, the home health partnership between
St. Andrew’s and St. Luke’s Hospital. “I can teach skills, but our team
needs to be innately personable and service-oriented to give our
clients the quality care they deserve. I make finding those people my
first priority.”
Tom joined Senior Solutions this past Spring, following the
retirement of longtime Vice President Ann Bannes. An experienced
healthcare professional, he has led several residential and home
health organizations in the area for the past 20 years. “I wanted to
come to Senior Solutions and St. Andrew’s because of their
outstanding reputation and because I believe in the nonprofit
mission here,” he said.
One of Tom’s immediate goals is to increase participation among area
employers in the organization’s innovative Caring Workplace
program. The program was created to provide information and
support services to employees of participating companies to help
them balance their job requirements and the demands of caring for
an older loved one. Fourteen companies currently offer the program,
and Tom hopes to grow that number. “It’s estimated that employee
caregiving responsibilities cost companies $33 billion a year in lost
4
time and
productivity,”
he noted. “This is a
challenge that is
only going to get
bigger in the
years ahead.”

Partnership Benefits Residents & Community
W
hen Cape Albeon became an official partner of
St. Andrew's Resources for Seniors System earlier this
year, residents gained access to skilled nursing, something they've never had before.
“For 14 years, I’ve been hoping for extended care to arrive here,” said
Lolly Wehrli, 87, who moved into Cape Albeon in 2000 and now has
access to skilled nursing at Brooking Park, another St. Andrew's
community. “It’s important for a lot of people, and I was overjoyed to
hear about the partnership.”
Increased access to skilled nursing is just one of many benefits
resulting from the closer association of the two organizations, which
already share a rich history. St. Andrew's, which provides housing
and health care to 8,000 seniors annually, has managed the 200resident Cape Albeon community since it opened in 2000. Before
relocating to Valley Park, Cape Albeon had been on the banks of the
Mississippi and was known as Good Samaritan Home for 100 years.
Nurse Ministries, for instance, and he hopes the partnership with
St. Andrew's will inspire such organizations to tap into each other’s
strengths to advance their missions.
“We are already working closely with a physicians' group, and if this
succeeds, perhaps we can export this concept around the country,”
he said. “I think many organizations can improve quality of life and
save money by working together.”
Meatheany says board members and residents are getting to know
each other. Cape Albeon residents have already toured some
St. Andrew’s communities, and board members and their families are
planning dinners and other events.
“This has been so satisfying because it’s a winning situation for
everyone,” she concluded. “We can do more as one.”
Diane Meatheany, St. Andrew’s Chief Operating Officer, said the
move was the next logical step in their relationship. “We’re both
well-respected organizations in the same market, and we are
mission-driven to serve seniors,” she added.
The two nonprofits now share resources and do more as one, she
noted. Outreach to churches, hospitals, the UCC, and Episcopalian
and Presbyterian memberships in Greater St. Louis will be easier
because the organizations are branded together and have a larger
referral base. Cape Albeon will also be able to serve more lowincome seniors through the charitable foundation of St. Andrew's.
“A couple of hospitals have said it’s easier to understand one system
instead of individual retirement communities,” Meatheany says.
Rev. Richard Ellerbrake, Cape Albeon's board president, hopes the
move will enhance relationships among other nonprofits. Cape
