Welcome to O.B. Senior Blog

  Welcome to outerbanksseniors.com. I hope you’ll enjoy this journal/bulletin board for Outer Banks seniors. You willl find calendars of activities for the senior centers that serve the area’s senior community, stories about Outer Banks seniors and issues that concern us. Health issues will be a focus from time to time. You will also find news of social and volunteer opportunities for seniors, as well as a calendar of events for the centers that serve area seniors.
  When a loved one passes away, there is often a sense of wanting to memorialize him or her, to explain your loved one’s life and surround your grief with the meaning that was this person. Email your tribute to lp@outerbanksseniors.com or send me the phone numbr of email address of the next of kin and I will interview and write abour your loved one. Make it down-to-earth to convey a sense of who this person was and what his or her legacy is.
  Remember the personals you enjoyed in your local newspapers years ago . . . so-and-so visited her son in New York City two weeks ago and found all healthy, etc.?  You are welcome to inform your friends about recent happenings such as trips, grandchild births, etc.
  You are also invited to send photos of your grandchildren, children, too, and a brief desctiption of the photo.
  A little about me. I am Linda Putnam. I have been a staff reporter for a local newspaper for 22 years covering community events, news, and more.
I would like for this blog to combine some of these  elements with senior comments.
  So there it is. I hope this little blog will inform, entertain, bring folks together and make your day a little brighter. To get in touch with me, just remember this email address, lp@outerbanksseniors.com.
