Meet William "Bill" & Virginia FennesseyBill and Virginia Fennessey are happy to be here at the Fountains pursuing the next chapter in their lives. They were first introduced to the Fountains of Franklin by their friend of 20 years, fellow resident and card partner, Jane Shillinglaw.

Bill thanks the good Lord for their long-term care insurance he acquired 20 years ago and preaches its value. Bill grew up in Boston, Massachusetts and Virginia in Bakersfield, California. Virginia moved to Montana where she began a family and became a business owner. Having five children, her life was active and busy. She began a T.V. Guide business and interviewed many interesting and famous people. Meanwhile, Bill became a paratrooper, training in Fort Bennie, New Jersey and then serving as a paratrooper instructor in Fort Campbell, Kentucky. He began his family that included two step-children. Bill and Virginia had great success with their respective careers not knowing that their paths would cross one day. After Bill left the Armed Services, he moved to Nashville, where he formed a construction company. Interestingly, Virginia also moved to Nashville to be near her daughter, Valerie. One day, Bill was invited to his daughter-in-laws’ home for supper as she wanted to introduce him to someone. He arrived and waited patiently on the front porch as the “mystery” person was late. Imagine that! As Virginia came down the sidewalk, Bill says, “She got my attention and was a red head!” She was just who he was searching for. They were married in a small ceremony in their beautiful new home, with friends and family present. Bill and Virginia are very content to be here at the Fountains of Franklin. They love all the activities and the fun. Virginia loves how the Fountains is laid out and loves the staff. She enjoys walking her sweet “Cookie” in the dog park. Bill initially struggled to adjust to his new home, but is now participating in all the great activities. While styling his funny socks and flashy shirts, he has “gotten our attention” here at the Fountains. The Fennesseys are a lovely addition to our family here at the Fountains of Franklin.

As flu shot season is quickly approaching, there are other vaccinations we need to consider getting this time of year. First, the pneumonia vaccine is recommended every 5 years, for all patients over the age of 65. The other vaccine we need to consider is the "shingles" vaccine. While this vaccine is fairly new, and sometimes not covered under insurance, it

reduces your risk of getting, or reoccurring episodes of shingles. Shingles is very uncomfortable with risk factors such as nerve damage and vision impairment. Check with the nurses for more information!

Meet Crystal AnglinCrystal is a Resident Assistant here at the Fountains of Franklin, but her role goes above and beyond her position. She is so passionate in her desire to help others, and our residents appreciate her so much. Crystal was drawn to the Fountains believing that her experience and care would be an asset, and that it is. Growing up in Arrington, Tennessee, she went to Page High School and then to Columbia State Community College. She majored in History and soon realized that it was more rewarding for her to be in the medical field. Actually, Geriatrics was her perfect fit. However, before Crystal pursued her medical role, she was a business owner (Sonic on Bell Road) and then was a realtor for Crye-Leike Real Estate. When asked about her future dreams, she expressed a desire to travel to Africa and Australia! Traveling the rest of the world would complete her dream. When she is not working, Crystal is still helping others by visiting people who are homebound. Another activity she enjoys is the sport of running. She runs 3-5 miles a day and also loves to lie by her pool at home. Spending time with

her large family is a joy to her. They gather at least twice a month to enjoy a meal and to play cards. Crystal is very happy to be here at the Fountains of Franklin. She feels like it is home and looks forward to continuing her career and excelling with the facility in her role. She strives to be her best, and we are fortunate to have her.
