Resident of the Month

Paul Lund was born in Sterling, Illinois where he grew up all of his life. He joined the United States Navy in 1952-1956, where he was a Radioman Second Class Petty Officer. To this day he can still do the Morse code. Dedot! Dedot! He served during the Korean War. After the Navy, he then went on to college at Murray State University in Murray, Kentucky where he met his wife of 50 years. Paul worked for Northwestern Steel and Wire Company where he started in the factory and then became an Industrial Engineer and then on to Top Salesman of the company. He retired from Northwestern Steel and Wire and then took a position with Alro Steel in Michigan where he was the Regional Vice President of Sales. Paul then retired and enjoyed his retirement years with his wife while traveling, and playing tennis and golf. He became a HUGE Michigan Fan during his working years and was able to go to all the games at the Big House. GO BLUE! You can find Paul driving around in his Power Chair with a Michigan Flag flying. Paul and his wife have two daughters, two grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren. Paul is a member of his church back home in Sterling, IL. And Loves the Lord. He also enjoys spending time outdoors and loves great conversations with people. His oldest daughter lives in Thompson Station and when it was time that Paul needed extra care he decided to move closer to her. Paul’s daughter (DeAnne) looked around for the best places for Paul to live so he could get the care he needed. The Goldton was recommended by others that DeAnne knew in the real estate world. When we went to visit The Goldton, the staff was so friendly and we ended up having lunch with some residents who were so nice to us. Finding The Goldton was a blessing and prayers were answered.
