This episode of Senior Moments welcomes the founders of Forgotten Angels, from Jacksonville, FL Kathi Snow and Sandi King.  

Kathi, Sandi along with their mother Peggy McKenney founded Forgotten Angels as a non-profit organization and have grown this idea over the years to what it is today, serving over 36 nursing homes and over 3000 elders last year.  

Peggy, originally from Lexington, KY is the mother of 3 retired and has lived in the Jacksonville since 2004. As co-founder of Forgotten Angels, she is the treasurer and as you will hear, is the liaison between the Angles and the nursing home activity directors. Even though she is in her 80's, you will hear how this lady just keeps things rolling!

Sandi serves as the Vice President and is usually the "voice" of the Angels getting the word out about their activities and making connections.

Kathi is the President of Forgotten Angels. Everything goes through Kathi! She is in charge of all decision making for all Angel activities and is the "spread sheet" organizer for all they do! 

The Forgotten Angels continued their mission as best they could in 2020 and are off to a busy year already in 2021. They have delivered 'treat bags' to nursing homes for Valentines, Easter, Mother's Day, and more!  

You will hear about their jelly sales that help fund what they do, which is coming up on June 26th at Jerry's Grille 13170 Atlantic Blvd, Jacksonville, FL from 3 pm - 5 pm. There will be auction items from local merchants, a 50/50 raffle, Forgotten Angels t-shirts and of course, their famous home-made jellies. Also, a percentage of all food and drink purchases will go to the Forgotten Angels! So if you are in the area, mark your calendar!
