Meet Gwen Lewis, Traditions' Featured Employee of the Month! Gwen was born and raised in Mississippi and has worked for Traditions at Brookside for 8 years. She is a Certified Nursing Assistant and their Laundry Supervisor.
"When I'm not working, I love spending time with my husband. Terry and I have been married for 19 years. We have three grown children, 15 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren! My family is my world," said Gwen. "When I'm not enjoying family time, I love shopping at Goodwill."
When asked if she has any hidden talents, Gwen smiled and said, "I am very good at interacting with our residents. I love making them smile! The best part of my workday is helping where I can. The Traditions at Brookside team is wonderful; I enjoy the people I work with. After I had surgery, I was welcomed back so warmly; the support and love I received from them was amazing. I can't thank Patty June, Maria, and Mrs. Janice enough for always having my back."
"We were so excited to nominate Gwen as Traditions' Employee of the Month," said Patty June, Brookside's Executive Director. "Gwen is a dedicated professional who exceeds expectations and has been a staple throughout our community for over eight years. From smiles, kind-hearted conversations, and positivity, we are lucky to share our work week with Gwen. She is always there for her colleagues and residents. Thank you, Gwen! We truly look forward to the next eight (or more!) years with you!"
