September Update 2025

Dear Magnolia Place family and friends of Bainbridge,

“Fresh month, fresh attitude, welcome, September!”  With each falling leaf, September whispers: start again.  But not before we say goodbye to Summer with all its wonderful fun times and activities. 

During the month of August, we glistened in the Sun as we fanned the gnats and were busier than an August Bee!   We celebrated Birthdays, started a beginner crochet class, visited the Downtown Historic Museum, while enjoying regular activities, arts and crafts

One activity that our residents really enjoyed was being pampered by Ga. Hospice during a Spa Day.  The ladies relaxed, exfoliated, and lip plumped to the relaxing music.  Thank you, Niki, for this experience.

We were also treated to the beautiful hymns from the Band, Chosen, and the First Baptist Church Senior Adult Choir.  The residents always look forward to music where spirits are lifted and praise is followed.

Lastly, the staff of Magnolia Bainbridge were very excited to make along with our residents our first commercial.  It airs on channel 27 ABC, WTXL.  Check us out! We want to remind you of our family BBQ Night, September 9th @ 5:30.  Please don’t forget to RSVP.

As August slipped away into a moment of time, as we welcome in September, we will remember the memories written in sunshine and sweet laughter! 

Be Well,
Kathy Middleton

August Update 2025

Dear Magnolia Place Family and Friends,

What a wonderful month we had in July! The residents started the month off with BFMC Children’s Ministry singing their camp songs and shared an afternoon painting glass crosses. The residents also enjoyed a special activity with our Gentiva Hospice friend, Mrs. Bonnie Warren. Also, later in the month, Morningside Baptist Women’s Chorus put on a spectacular show for us as they sang one Wednesday evening.

We continued our month-long festivities by welcoming Summer with all its heat and gnats with our Annual Summer Bash Lua.

While the residents were busy with regular activities , our Marketing Director, Mrs. Pam Howell, and I were off to spread Magnolia Missions to SOWEGA Aging Council.

As we remember July 2025, we will embrace August, for it reminds us to cherish every golden moment of our lives . “In the quiet moments of August, find the strength to listen to your heart and follow your dreams.” “August is a time of reflection and growth, a reminder that every ending brings a new beginning.”

With Love,
Kathy Middleton

July Update 2025

Dear Friends and Family of Bainbridge Magnolia,

As May stepped aside with all its transformations and growths, we welcomed the hot, steamy month of June! With its own beauty, our Residents continued to enjoy our rocking chairs as they watched the birds and blooms change from Winter into Spring.

We welcomed the first day of Summer with open arms on the 20th with a fresh glass of lemonade while listening to old Gospel Hymns. I think the gnats were even humming along!

We also celebrated our Annual C.N.A. (Certified Nursing Assistant) week with the theme, “We are Champions!” During this week, we honored our CNAs with a delicious BBQ lunch, snow cones, and several goody bags. Thank you to ALL our Hospice family for making our team feel special, Archbold, Ga. Hospice, Affinity, and Gentiva. Because of you, we made that week spectacular! We appreciate all you do!!
Last but not least, we honored and recognized our “Men of Magnolia with a delicious Jone’s smoked pork chop with all the trimmings on the 22nd. It was fit for our Kings, and we love you!

As we concluded this hot month, we were excited about being indoors as Christ United Methodist Church helped us make sea glass vases. I think the residents enjoyed the children as much as the activity! Thank you, UMC, for bringing smiles to Bainbridge Magnolia.

We enjoyed how Summer wrapped its arms around us like a warm blanket, but we are looking forward to July with all its Glory.


With lots of love, Kathy Middleton

June Update 2025

Dear Magnolia family and friends,

The month of May came and went but not before it bloomed with full splendor of spring and uplifting energy. It left us with a month of colorful renewal, continued growth, and the heartwarming promise of sunny days ahead.

We indulged in the charm of May as we celebrated Mother’s Day. What a beautiful tribute to our mothers as we held our traditional Hat Luncheon and fabulous chicken salad. Thank you to Lacey Shepard as our speaker who spoke of what it means to be a Mother. 

We continued to celebrate the month with fun activities, elementary chorus and church serenades, Bingo with the youth, and picture Bingo with Bonnie from Gentiva Hospice. We also began a Pen Pal club and wrote to friends and family. 

Here’s to making the most of May and welcoming the beauty, warmth, and joy of the month of June which signifies the start of summer!

With Love,

Kathy Middleton

May Update 2025

Dear Magnolia family and friends,

I am “hopping “ to share with you all our activities that brought not only the Easter Bunny but family, faith, friendship, and new beginnings.  As we are reminded of the true meaning of Easter, our residents experienced many activities that had them being truly some special eggs!

Residents hopped right into the Easter season by visiting and speaking at our local Keenagers Program, hunting Easter eggs at our home, and having a movie day with Ga. Hospice, serenaded by Hitto Middle School Chorus, and even had the Easter Bunny visit our home one afternoon.

Our residents also enjoyed sweet Easter bags that were made by the First Graders from Jones-Wheat Elementary.  Thank you to the sponsors, First Port City Bank and Memory Card, LLC.

 Just as we thought the Easter Bunny had stolen the show, Normandy, a great white Pyrenees therapy dog, came to visit us as well.  Not only was he huge, but his kisses and licks were too!

Lastly, as we continued with exercising and activities, we added a devotion time twice a week to spend time with our Faith and friends.  This has truly been a great way for our residents to fellowship together.

As I reflect on this beautiful season, I cherish the true meaning of Easter,  which is hope, renewal, and the excitement of new beginnings. 

With Love,

Kathy Middleton

April Update 2025

Dear Magnolia family and friends,

Once again, we wrapped up the month of March with lots of daily activities and welcomed in some nice porch weather. The residents and families may have noticed all our landscape changes as we were getting ready for our anticipated Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting on March 26th.  It was a very special day for us at Magnolia Place in Bainbridge, and thank you to those who came out to support us. We also have additional flowers and something even for all the birds to enjoy in our beautiful courtyard. We plan as the nice spring weather moves in to serve dinner some in the new space, as you smell lavender and Tea Olives in the air.    

We, as always, thank each of our local Hospices not only for what they do for our residents but also for what they do for our staff!  Another thanks goes out to a special lady for keeping our sweet tooth full of her potato pies and yummy St Patrick’s Day cupcakes, Mrs. Joyce Jackson.  She has been so thoughtful, taking time to treat the residents and staff with her talents. Finally, thank you to Tim and his “gang” that serenaded us with sounds of the piano, violin, and laughter that brought back fond memories for each of us. 

As spring continues to bring wonderful weather, we invite you to come out to our home to enjoy rocking with us on the porch with hummingbirds that visit, or take a stroll through the shaded courtyard and the grounds. We would love to see you!

I wish all of you Blessings and look forward to what the Easter Bunny will be surprising us with as we welcome April’s spring flowers and showers. 

With Love,

Kathy Middleton

March Update 2025

Dear Bainbridge Magnolia Assisted Living Residents and families,

Cupid wasn’t the only busy one this month.  Bainbridge Magnolia Assisted Living had plenty to Love of their own!  The Residents first started some fun activities hosted by our friends of our local hospice agencies.  Thank you to Georgia, Gentiva, and Archbold Hospice for bringing some fun activities and snacks to our home.  Secondly, the residents enjoyed another classic film at our local library.  Love was surely in the air this Valentine’s Day as the ladies at Bainbridge First Methodist hosted a Valentine Party with homemade goodies and plenty of laughter to be heard. 

Lastly, Residents ended the month with a visit from our local Humane Society where puppies and Dogs were cuddled and kissed.  What a great way to end this sweet February month!  Please join us anytime for fun and friendship.  We love to see our families and friends in our home.

With Love,
Kathy Middleton

October Update 2024

Hello Family and Friends, 

We welcome October with open arms!  We are excited for the cooler weather; pumpkins and the colors fall brings.  Our porch is a popular place year-round; we expect that all of us will enjoy time with loved ones outside.  We will get to resume daily walks on our walking path and more outings!  

Last month we enjoyed hosting Willow Ridge at our home, and we will continue to visit with them regularly.  We took a trip to Wal-Mart for exercise and shop therapy!  We enjoy getting off campus and our residents do too.  

We are always moving and grooving at MPB – We have daily exercise that improves balance, range of motion and gross motor skills.  We also enjoy music on the record player and dance lessons.  These ladies sure can swing! 

Finally, we are so blessed to have weathered the storm so well.  We were prepared, we had several of our wonderful staff on site, lots of food and were ready with our new generator.  

However, our prayers are many and ongoing for those in need.  

We hope to see you soon,
Mary Kent McDaniel

September Update 2024

Hello Family and Friends,

Aloha Summer! September is providing, cooler mornings and a bustle of activities. Many residents have enjoyed the front porch , reading, pruning, caring for and visiting with kittens. Kathy’s exercise class is well attended and has been great for everyone! We were able to go to Willow Ridge and visit old friends, and some new ones too.

We celebrated LOTS of Birthdays in August and had a fantastic End of Summer Luau with music, dancing, hors d’oeuvres and pineapple upside down cake! A big shout out to Team MPB, because of you, all of this is possible. Teamwork makes the dream work – Thank you

Looking forward to all things Fall, Mary Kent McDaniel
