Little Egg Harbor Senior Living Community’s Centenarian Resident Shares Life Advice
Agnes Goetz
LITTLE EGG HARBOR, N.J. (Sept. 21, 2023) — National Centenarian’s Day, an annual observance slated this year for Friday, Sept. 22, is the perfect occasion to honor the community’s residents who have lived an entire century or more. It’s also a perfect time to learn from an older generation that has so much to share, and The Terraces at Seacrest Village is doing just that.
Kelly Reilly, the senior living community’s executive director, said she and her team embraced the day as an opportunity for the entire community to share in all that The Terraces at Seacrest Village centenarian resident Agnes Goetz has experienced in her lifetime – from the Great Depression and World Wars to the exploration of space and the digital revolution. Here’s what she had to share about the advice she would give to young people:
“Keep learning, because life never stops teaching,” said Goetz, who will be turning 100 in October.
“We were thrilled to celebrate our amazing centenarian,” said Reilly. “Agnes has enjoyed a rich and fascinating life, and her stories and wisdom are an inspiration to us all. At the same time, she and her family take comfort in knowing she has access to age-in-place support and services as needed.”
