JOHN WOLFE'S AARP WISH OF A LIFETIME HAPPENED ON JUNE 28, 2024 AT THOMASVILLE AIRPORT
John Wolfe, a former Home Delivered Meal Driver of 20 years for White Rose Senior Center, currently lives at Country Meadows in Shiloh.
Bonnie Geisinger from Country Meadows submitted John's name over a year ago to the "AARP Wish of a Lifetime". John was a commercial pilot, flew many times out of the Thomasville Airport, is a WW2 Veteran, a writer, and an all around wonderful man who everyone loves and admires.
The plane took off on Friday, June 28th in the morning with some of John's family members and a worker from Country Meadows on board. They flew over York County and some of us watched the flight pattern on our phone app. John was asked by the pilot to take over the controls. He thoroughly enjoyed it!
Afterwards family and friends returned to Country Meadows where two AARP Representatives shared some remarks and cake was had by the residents. John shared some stories and answered questions about his flying days.
WGAL was there and interviewed John. If you missed seeing WGAL on Friday and Saturday, click on the link below and enjoy meeting this amazing man...John Wolfe.

WHITE ROSE SENIOR CENTER IS LOOKING FOR HOME DELIVERED MEAL DRIVERS
Are you looking for a rewarding volunteer job? White Rose Senior Center is looking for YOU!
Home Delivered Meals are delivered currently one time a week to homebound older adults that the York County Area Agency on Aging have assessed and deemed appropriate.
White Rose Senior Center has 10 routes that vary with a few clients to upwards of 28 clients. The route may take 1- 1 1/2 hours and the meals are ready for delivery about 10:00 on Mondays.
You need to have a car, a valid driver's license, and enjoy older adults. You may be the only person that the client may see all day. Our drivers LOVE this volunteer opportunity and have made great friends with those that they serve.
If you are interested, please contact Lisa Krout at White Rose Senior Center (717-843-9704) for additional information. She can set up a "ride along" with an experienced driver to see if you may like helping an older adult in our community!
