VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Doris Blount was raised in Burton Station. Now 89, she was honored at a graduation ceremony on the same ground where she grew up.
Affectionately named “the matriarch of the class,” Blount and more than a dozen other residents who live in Tranquility at the Lakes, a senior apartment community, recently completed a 12-week health and nutrition course.
They learned how to prepare healthy foods, the value of taking time to rest and the positive benefits of keeping a journal.
