Residents of local senior living home take trip down memory lane
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) – It was a trip back in time Friday for some residents at Heritage Manor in Youngstown. They were treated to a classic car show to celebrate Father's Day. The senior living center often looks for fun events to keep its clients active. Friday's car show gave them a chance to socialize and take a trip down memory lane. 'I think what we find, especially when people get older, we know if they can relate back to things they are passionate about and reminds them of their parents or friends or hobbies, it resonates that way, and it's good this way to be able to share with them,' said Eric Murray, executive director of senior services at Heritage Manor. Residents have also enjoyed ice cream parties in the past and special holiday celebrations. Jim Bowser contributed to this report. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On Saturday, March 8, 2025, RAM Pavement employees joined the 13th Annual Run Jen Run 5K & Festival at Symphony Park in SouthPark, Charlotte. Hosted by the Go Jen Go Foundation, the event brought together over 1,100 participants, including cancer survivors, local families and supporters, to raise funds for breast cancer patients in need. As a proud sponsor, RAM Pavement continues to support initiatives that directly impact the communities where it operates.

Team members showed strong turnout and enthusiasm, with 20 employees participating in the race, proudly wearing RAM's pink event shirts.

"We're just so happy to be part of such a great organization that gives back to the community — helping women afflicted with cancer, helping pay the utility bills, helping them get to the hospital, during Christmas time to get gifts.
