As is the custom, there was no Hamilton Place Rotary Club meeting held the day before Thanksgiving.
I hope everyone had a warm Thanksgiving Day with your favorite comfort foods and your cornbread dressing just the way you like it. I also truly hope your day included plenty of friends and family with whom to share memories and create new ones.
I am thankful for my family, my health and for each one of you.

International President-Elect John & Judy Germ will be our special guests at this week’s meeting.
Let’s WOW them with a large turnout!

This week’s speaker is Brett Billings with Senior Care Advisors, an independent planning and care management company established in 2010 in Chattanooga, TN.
Many of us have already been faced or soon will be faced with the challenges of assisting our aging parents with their evolving needs. Founder Brett Billings strives to provide insightful, client-focused advice for seniors facing challenging decisions. He believes it is important to know your options when facing eldercare.
They work with families, caregivers and seniors to help make the most informed decisions by evaluating the health needs, financial position and social dynamics of the situation. They stand as an advocate for each of their clients, addressing concerns or issues that may arise. When over-coming the challenges of long-term care, it is important to have communication, clear understanding and a comprehensive plan.
