Resident of the Month

Juanita “Monnie” Parish was born in Cleburne, Texas, on October 20, 1939. She was a beloved high school teacher for over 30 years and continues to receive calls from former students who still check in on her. She has always had a heart for helping others, often volunteering her time to support struggling students.
Monnie is a true social butterfly who loves staying connected with her many friends and family. She was married to her husband, William Alton Parish, for 62 years until his passing. She is a proud mother, grandmother, and friend.
An exercise enthusiast, Monnie enjoyed going to the gym and even taught spin classes! She also has a love for travel and spent summers taking cross-country trips, visiting 48 of the contiguous states. Her adventures also took her overseas to England, Italy, France, and Holland.
Monnie is known throughout our community for her beautiful smile, love of dancing, and infectious laugh. We are so happy to have her beautiful spirit as part of our community.
Congratulations, Ms. Monnie! We’re so happy to celebrate you!
