Stories of Joy: Resident of the Month

Our January Resident of the Month, Jo Putney, is a bright, kind, and thoughtful resident who has been a cherished part of our community for many years. She was married for 56 loving years to her late husband, Robert, and is a proud mother of three exceptional daughters, all with college degrees. Family has always been at the heart of her life, and her love and dedication to them shine through everything she does.

Ms. Putney worked for 20 years in the Finance Department with Huntsville City Schools at an elementary school, where her hard work and commitment made a lasting impact. She is also a faithful member of Asbury Methodist Church and lives her life guided by the Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Her kindness and thoughtfulness are felt by everyone who has the pleasure of knowing her.

A gifted artist with a love for gardening and flowers, she enjoys creative expression and the beauty of nature. Some of her favorite pastimes with family include picnics, walks, attending church together, and fondly remembered games of “bathtub Scrabble” during tornado warnings. As our longest resident of 7 years, she is thankful for Madison at the Range and the friendships she has made here–and we are incredibly thankful for her and the warmth she brings to our community.
