Assisted Living March Resident Feature - Nancy Ferris

3/15/2023

Assisted Living March Resident Feature - Nancy Ferris
Getting to know each of our residents at our senior living Lake in the Hills community is one of the best perks of becoming a part of our senior living community family.
 
​We want you to get to meet some of our amazing residents as well. This month, we are featuring community resident, Nancy Ferris, who shared a bit about her life with us!
​Nancy Lee Ferris was born in the northwest side of Chicago. She is an alumnus of Notre Dame High School in Chicago and attended Rosary College in Elmwood Park for two years. After college Nancy married and had 2 children. In 1997, when her children were teenagers, they moved as a family to Crystal Lake where she resided before moving to Melody Living’s assisted living facility.


Nancy also has 3 beautiful grandchildren, whom she loves dearly. Nancy's biggest accomplishment is being able to keep a happy family that wants to be together.
​ 
In her younger years, Nancy worked as a music teacher for elementary age students. Her long term career of 30 years was working as a dental office manager. When she retired, however, Nancy wanted to work with children again, so she started working at the local elementary school for grades kindergarten through second grade as a lunchroom supervisor. She retired from the school after 18 years of service.

​Working at the school was by far the most rewarding job for Nancy as she loved working and helping little children. Nancy's favorite hobby was helping children with tutoring and a pivotal moment for her was when one of her students played in Carnegie Hall.
 
Nancy’s special talent is dancing to any rhythm of music. She loves to dance and she is called, “Dancing Nancy” here at Melody Living. Her favorite holiday is Christmas because she loves spending time with family, singing, and playing games. Nancy’s favorite place to visit is Acapulco, Mexico with her husband; they traveled there every year for vacation. She also loved going to the casino with her sister. 
​The amenities Nancy enjoys are being able to sit down with friends and enjoy all of our activities together as they talk about their day and family life.
 
She really enjoys all the structured, resident-driven, activities Melody Living offers to learn new hobbies and nurture old ones too. She also really enjoys the live entertainment that comes into Melody living weekly.
 
Nancy’s advice is that, “Any person you know or don’t, take time to get to know them before you judge.” Nancy says you will be amazed at how many nice people truly are in the world.
