Ms.
Village HealthCare
As
a tiara was placed on her head and a sash was put across
her shoulders, Jeanne Wallis became this year's titleholder
of Ms Village HealthCare. Wallis likes puzzles, skiing
and writing letters. She has been married for 65 years
and has raised four children. When asked by the judges
to name the craziest thing she has done in her life,
she elicited laughter from the crowd when she replied,
"this".
Acting
as Master of Ceremonies, Activity Director Miguel Sarasa
introduced six contestants who were judged on appearance,
talent, and an interview for the Hemet California's
third annual event. Each contestant was sponsored by
a staff member that helped them find a proper dress
and ensured they were presentable for all three categories.
Judges included Jamie Johnson, Emma Vallejo, Anna Reichenberg,
Courtney Hill, Miss Hemet 2007, and Meagan Tandy, Miss
California USA 2007.
The
purpose of this program is to allow our residents the
opportunity to show that they still can make a difference
and that their beauty still remains regardless of age
and limitations. Miss California USA and Third Runner
Up in the 2007 Miss USA pageant Meagan Tandy commented
that the ladies shined and really came to life. After
the ladies received their titles and finished their
photo sessions, Wallis turned to Queens Hill and Tandy
and said, "I'll have to call you up and ask you
what to do." NN
