On behalf of the Board of Directors we
would like to acknowledge Roman Frid-
man for his 25 years of service to the
North west home. We congratulate him
on this new phase of life. Another Passo-
ver has come and gone. What a joyous
thing it was, to spend time with family
and friends. It felt as good as a Passover
from our childhoods. Next year, we
should all spend another enjoyable Passo-
ver together at Park Plaza in good health.
As spring arrives, the weather is getting
nicer and more enjoyable. Make sure to
get some fresh air, sit outdoors and enjoy
the beautiful park.

to part time at Park Plaza since I will be
turning sixty-five this month and I wish to
have more time to spend with my family. I
will be working three days a week: Mon-
day, Wednesday and Friday. I will contin-

During the past seven years working for
Park Plaza which is part of my twenty-five
years working for the Northwest Home I
have felt a special attachment to all of you
and will continue to do my best to bring
you joy, satisfaction and relaxation
through music and personal attention. As I

This month, the celebrations continue
with Mother’s Day, Jerusalem Day, Shavu-
ot, and Memorial Day. Please join us for a
high tea and concert, on May 10th at
2:30pm in honor of Mother’s Day. We
look forward to celebrating our beautiful
mothers together.
We are coming up on the home stretch of
our bathroom renovations. The South and
West wings have been completed, and all
residents from these wings have returned
to their permanent apartments. Renova-
tions on the East wing (Apartments 601-
609, 501-509, 401-410) have started. We
are now in the process of moving the 3rd
and 2nd floors of the East Wing. Adina
will be contacting residents and families
to coordinate their temporary moves.
Renovations last about 3-6 weeks.
Approximately around mid-June, our ad-
ministrative and medical offices will be
moving into the new West Wing Addition.
Construction will then be moving towards
the lobby. Be prepared for some noise
and a few detours as our crews work
swiftly to complete the remodel.
If you have questions about this next
phase of the renovation please contact
Yehuda. We ask for everyone’s patience

Resident Recognition
Someone You Should Know
Margot Schlesinger
Margot Schlesinger moved to Park Plaza last
year. She has been a fixture in the West Rog-
ers Park neighborhood for over 50 years,
along with her late husband Chaskel Schle-
singer. Her story of survival is a unique and
incredible tale, one that she has told many
times. Like many holocaust survivors, she
didn’t just survive one single peril, but a
long string of many. She says her life was
saved 25 times; and having her name on
Schindler’s List was just one of those. Be-
cause she was saved, she was able to help
save others. She quotes the old adage in
Jewish Law, “If you save one life, you save
the whole world.”
Margot, her husband ,and three daughters
emigrated to the U.S. in 1953 and reunited
with her brothers and sister. She and
Chaskel worked hard to raise their daughters
and instill them with a strong education.
Margot kept busy after her husband passed
in 1999, but decided to move to Park Plaza
last year. Margot expressed her love for Park
Plaza; she enjoys being close to family and
friends, and having all the amenities that
Park Plaza provides.

Dear Park Plaza,
Amazing! I am writing to let you know
how much we appreciate everything you
did to make our family Pesach wonderful.
My father, Leon Gutman, was surrounded
by his children, grandchildren and great-
grandchildren and the joy on his face was
unbelievable. You really made this all pos-
sible for him and for our family.The chil-
dren could sit at the Seder table and share
their homemade school projects with my
father (their Haggadahs and their Seder
plates and their kiddish cups). And my fa-
ther could hear them sing the Ma
Nishtanah a hundred times. The children
were able to share a closeness with their
great grandfather and he was able to
share complete Nachas from these chil-
dren.
I also want to thank all the dining room
staff. They were wonderful and always
cheerful and friendly. They really made
the meals a very special part of the day.
We were all so impressed with the won-
derful life Park Plaza provides for the resi-
dents. The apartments are beautiful, the
davening was beautiful, the food was deli-
cious, the staff is so kind. The enormous
array of activities really enhances every-
one's lives. Park Plaza is truly an impres-
sive place.
I recognize the tremendous effort it takes
to organize all the details of this visit, es-
pecially on Pesach. Please know that we
appreciate all the effort that you and all
the people at Park Plaza put into planning
our visit and our Pesach with my father.
What People Are Saying
Families are encouraged to join
their loved ones and celebrate their
birthdays. We celebrate during

PARK PLAZA’S RABBI
This year there are three events
of Jewish significance in May.
The Hebrew months of Iyar and
Sivan occur during May. The first date is
Lag B’Omer. Lag B’Omer is the 33rd day
of the Omer time period between the hol-
idays of Passover and Shavuot. On this
day we mark the cessation of the divinely
sent plague that occurred during the
Omer period among Rabbi Akiva’s many
students for not showing proper respect
for one another. Lag B’Omer this year is
Thursday, May 7th.
The second date of significance is Yom
Yerushalayim / Jerusalem Day. This day
marks the anniversary of the capture of
the Old City of Jerusalem and the Temple
Mount, and the reunification of Jerusalem
under Israeli sovereignty following the Six
Day War in 1967. This year Jerusalem Day
occurs on Sunday, May 17th, and we will
be celebrating the day with an exciting
musical program on Monday, May
18th.The third date of Jewish significance
is the holiday of Shavuot. Shavuot begins
the evening of Saturday, May 23rd and ex-
tends through the night of Monday, May
25th. The name of the holiday of Shavuot
means “weeks.” The holiday comes at the
conclusion of counting seven weeks of the
Omer, starting from the second day of
Passover. The central event in the history
of the Jewish people that we commemo-
rate on Shavuot is the receiving of the To-
rah at Mount Sinai. On Shavuot, we strive
to re-enact this moment, and re-receive
the Torah each year and declare as our an-
Mazel Tovs and Memorials
MAZEL TOV:
Bernard and Muriel Finkel on the en-
gagement of their grandson, and on the
birth of a great-grand daughter.
Ben Lebovits on the birth of a great-
grandson, and the engagement of a
grandson
Bella and Sussman Rubin on the birth of
a new great-grandchild.
IN MEMORIAM:
On behalf of the entire staff at Park Plaza
Retirement Center, we would like to
express our deepest sympathy to the
family and friends of:
Baruch Pelc
Belle Shedlow
Blanche Serota
Landon Zuckerman
Larry Heimlich
Rabbi Jack Frank
Clara Zenner
May their families be comforted among
the mourners of Zion and Yerushalayim
and know of no further sorrow.

tain a well-balanced diet. This means
getting the proper vitamins and nutrients
that the body needs to maintain a good
healthy balance. One of these items in
particular is very important for the heart,
especially in those who are age 30 and
over. Omega-3 fatty acids which can be
found in fatty fish like salmon or whitefish
and alpha-linolenic fatty acids which are
found in plant foods like walnuts or Al-
monds, help boost the immune system,
reduce blood clots, and protect against
heart attacks. They also increase good
cholesterol (HDL) levels, lower triglyceride
levels, protect arteries from plaque
buildup, are anti-inflammatories, and help
lower blood pressure. Even if you don’t
like fish or nuts, try to add some to your
diet. Other heart healthy foods that we
serve are: acorn squash, blueberries, to-
mato, carrots, avocado, broccoli, kidney
beans, cantaloupe, asparagus, oranges,
papaya, oatmeal, tuna, tofu, soy beans,
sweet potato and red wine.
This month is Mother’s Day! We encour-
age you to invite your families to come
celebrate Mother’s Day with you here at
Park Plaza. Please make sure to let the
front desk know if you will be having
guests for any meals so we can ensure we
have adequate seating. Have a great
month of May!

Hello Everyone! I hope you are
all enjoying the slowly warming
weather! Pesach is finally be-
hind us! I hope everyone en-
joyed the delicious and elaborate food
we served here over the holiday. Since
spring is here, that means it’s almost
fruit season again! So be sure to put in
your request for your favorite fruit to be
put on the menu. My produce repre-
sentative tells me that plums will be in
season very shortly, so look forward to
seeing more fresh plums followed by
peaches and nectarines. Expect our can-
taloupe and honeydew to be sweeter
and juicier towards the end of the
month.
We have been making Thursday dinners
our Heart healthy dinner. We try to incor-
porate foods that promote heart health.
It is very important for all of us to main-

redness or sores. Deeper toe boxes, soft
inserts that support your arch or even a
custom made insert is very important.
And get your yearly free shoes from Med-
icare if you are diabetic!
Everyone should alternate the shoes they
wear daily and if your feet have de-
creased sensation; turn the shoes over
before you put them on in case some-
thing has fallen in the shoe. Walking on a
foreign object all day will cause a sore by
day’s end and you may not even feel it
because of poor sensation!
If your feet hurt…come see us for recom-
mendations and foot therapy. Happy feet
make happy people!

ISAC KAPULSKI
REBIRTH
By Isac H. Kapulski
At a time when nature seems to have
gone into hibernation, when humans and
all sorts of creatures seek shelter
from the relentless and merciless cold
and wind that penetrates the very mar-
row of our bones, causing shivers
enough to make us tremble for what may
seem to be an eternity…
…and while covering ourselves with layer
upon layer of clothing, we seek the com-
fort of warmth that slowly starts
to permeate throughout our body, we go
on reminiscing of the glorious and warm
days that keep marching on at
the end of spring, ushering the arrival of
summertime, which we await with great
THE WELLNESS CORNER:
Warm weather is slowly ap-
proaching, which brings a
smile to all of us as the sun
shines and we get to go out for a breath of
fresh air. Remember to stay hydrated
while sitting outside under the sun and al-
ways apply sun screen to protect your skin
and prevent complications from sun dam-
age.
Feel free to stop by the wellness center
and have your blood pressure checked be-
tween 1:00-2:00PM Monday through Fri-
day.

Walking Well
There are many factors that
affect how we walk, but let’s
think about your shoes
which have a major role in determining
your gait. Simply stated, they affect your
feet and ankles which in turn affect your
knees, hips and low back.
If your shoes fit poorly or if you have pain-
ful bunions, neuromas or callouses, you
will change the way you walk which can
throw off your balance and even make
your body work harder than it needs to.
Slip on shoes increase your fall risk be-
cause you step in such a way to keep
those shoes on. Always wear a shoe with
a back; even in the summer.
Anyone with diabetes, neuropathy, poor
circulation, hammer and claw toes need
to pay attention to the shoe’s fit and visu-
ally check your feet for skin breakdown

expectations…
…we envision the appearances of blue
and sunny skies, the chirping of newborn
chicks; the first blossoms of what hope-
fully will become a kaleidoscope of beau-
tifully mesmerizing colors and hues that
will dress up nature as it awakens from
its long winter slumber…
…A sense of delightful and inspirational
hope seems to inundate our souls and
being, and, as if looking through a
virtual crystal ball, we seek to take a
peek at the latent and pregnant possibil-
ities of a rebirth of expectations…a
desire for perhaps, this time, as the buds
blossom into a bountiful cache of beauti-
ful flowers, our dreams will once
again be transformed into reality…
…we envision parks, playgrounds, back-
yards, gardens, replenishing their green
mantle of newly-sprouted grass
blades; multi-colored butterflies flutter-
ing in the air – even fireflies flickering as
darkness descends, welcoming the
night…
We eagerly await, perhaps this time, the
unfolding of the Sukkat Shalom – The
Tabernacle of Peace that
will ultimately engulf our entire planet;
We anxiously and deeply inhale all of our
aspirations for a better world and hope
to exhale the product that simmers in
our souls, an era that will eventually and
ultimately lead us to that long-awaited
Tikkun Olam - a better world - healed,
renewed and exuberantly reinvigorat-
ed…
JEWISH HUMOR
Morah Rachel is reading her class the sto-
ry of Chicken Little. She gets to the part
where Chicken Little tries to warn the
farmer. “So Chicken Little went over to the
farmer and said, ‘The sky is falling, the sky
is falling.”
Morah Rachel then asks her class, “What
do you think the farmer said?”
Little Moshe raises his hand. “I think he
said, ‘I can’t believe it! A talking chicken!”
