Advisory Committee Member: Tom Hess


from Tom:

I have always enjoyed being outside and helping others. St Leonard has allowed me the opportunity to do both. Along with assisting residents and staff with landscaping and other outdoor projects, I enjoy the environment and get the exercise that I would otherwise not be able to with any other occupation. I look forward to the social interaction with the residents and joy that I see on their faces day after day. I have always been one to try to stay “In Shape”. Recently I realized that exercise does not have to be an individual thing. My son at 5 years old, on his own, insisted that he wanted to run with daddy instead of watching the St. Leonard 5k. So he did. Since then, he has run the last 3 years and my wife and other son and daughter have also gotten involved. Exercise can be a part of everyone’s life whether you’re 5 or 105.
