For more than a decade now Twin Oaks nursing home in LaPlace has been honoring residents age 90 and older with a special program called “This Is Your Life.”

Recently six new honorees’ lives were celebrated with stories and other remembrances from family members and roses courtesy of Blooming Vines.  This year’s honorees included Mayola Brown, 95, Helen Davis, 90, Hazel Feliciana, 91, Doris Roane, 91, Mae Roussel, 90, and Ruth King, 90.

The program opened with a prayer and a song from the Rev. Perry Suggs before each honoree was brought to the front of the activity room, surrounded by family, and their long lives celebrated.
