Senior Humor
Three Brothers
Three brothers, aged 92, 94, and 96, live together.
One night the 96-year-old draws a bath, puts his foot in, and pauses. He yells down the stairs, "Was I getting in or out of the bath?"
The 94-year-old yells back, "I don't know, I'll come up and see." He starts up the stairs and pauses. Then he yells, "Was I going up the stairs or coming down?"
The 92-year-old was sitting at the kitchen table having coffee listening to his brothers. He shakes his head and says, "I sure hope I never get that forgetful." He knocks on wood for good luck.
He then yells, "I'll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who's at the door."

What's Happening at Visiting Angels
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Each month, Rudy Tervooren (Co-Owner and Executive Director) travels throughout the community visiting referral sources and attending client meetings.
Rudy frequently gives presentations at senior centers, assembly rooms, and in offices throughout Mercer and Burlington counties in New Jersey.
We're passionate to share how our State-certified home care employees can help seniors with all their daily living needs, making it possible for them to continue living at home safely and less expensively than in a facility.
If you would like to schedule an eldercare presentation, please call 609-883-8188 or email [email protected].
