Settled in a Memory Care Facility

Settled in a Memory Care Facility

The other day my sister and I were helping a dear friend in California, Helen, to get settled in a memory care facility.

I told my sister I would bring my guitar and would get Helen to sing her favorite song (and one of mine).

Gene Sartain

Gene Urban

I met Gene Sartain at Tenth East Senior Center, a facility that Heart & Soul performers visit regularly. He was accompanied by his Irish flute, a guitar, and a small, elderly dog named Rita who he had rescued. The three of us sat down, and surrounded by residents, we chatted about Heart & Soul, his travels, and what it means to give back.
