She wanted to see her nephew Rob play music at the Foss Farmers Market with Easy Company, the band that has played all 9 years at the market. The request was made, Rob and the band made contact, and on August 25, 2018, Kathy saw her nephew play.<\/p>\n<p>Many of Kathy&#8217;s family members were in attendance at the Market to see Rob&#8217;s performance, and were almost as excited as she was.<\/p>\n\t\t<h2>\n\t\t\tTestimonials from residents and families\n\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/_4KXYcqZBdI\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"\/>\n\t\t<h3>\n\t\t\tEarline Alston\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>One person can make a difference.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/d9KtAj-EQEM\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"\/>\n\t\t<h3>\n\t\t\tJefferson Family\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>Meet the Jefferson Family and hear about their journey that led them to Foss!<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Xa1c4SJoo_w\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"\/>\n\t\t<h3>\n\t\t\tThe Hensel Family\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>Pauline and her son Marvin were both residents at Foss.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/0D6EFbTVcbM\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"\/>\n\t\t<h3>\n\t\t\tHarold and Betty Purkhiser\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<p>What would you do if you or an aging loved one\u00a0experienced a unexpected health crisis?\u00a0Hear how Foss helped Harold and Betty\u00a0through life&#8217;s challenges and changes.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn about our residents&#8217; experiences Kathy Howson In June, 1986 Kathy Howson came to work at Foss Home and Village and became part of the Foss Family.
