The Jewish Pavilion Senior Resources Specialist and Program Director Emily Newman
and Marketing Director and Community Educator Pamela Ruben.
Have you found yourself
searching and scouring the
Internet for senior services?
No doubt, you will find all
you need and much more.
Perhaps, you may have started
out looking for home delivered
meals, but then stumble upon
assisted-living options.
Maybe mom and dad should
move to senior living, you ask
yourself. Maybe the family
ought to pursue estate plans
and financial arrangements
with a lawyer or a financial
expert.
The senior resource special-
ist at the Orlando Senior Help
Desk has helped hundreds
of callers navigate their way
through the daunting maze
of older adult services.
There are many aspects in
the care of our elders. Orlando
Senior Help Desk is a free
service offered by the Jew-
ish Pavilion and available to
the entire community. Calls
are also received by family
members living at a distance.
The beauty of Orlando Senior
Help Desk is someone with
expert advice and resources
is available to help you find
the appropriate services and
help. Orlando Senior Help
Desk is there for caregivers
and family members with ad-
vice on senior services, senior
living options, home health
services, elder law, hospice,
adult day care and more.
There are many times when
a Jewish Pavilion volunteer
visit is just what is needed.
Our seniors thrive with a little
special attention and addi-
tional cultural programming
to enhance mom's or dad's
experience at senior living.
We even offer pet visits with
Jewish Pavilion volunteers.
You name it, we can help you
find the care and service for
your loved one.

ENRICHING LIVES IN ELDER COHHUNITIES
FLOW
museum
came known as the Florida
Highwaymen because they
would sell their freshly fin-
ished paintings of old Florida's
landscapes for $10 to $20
along the side of the high-
ways. Today their 200,000
plus paintings have gathered
significant interest and have
become quite collectible.
At auctions some of these par-
ticular painters' works have
been recognized with high
prices, notably important
older works by the "original"
members.
Bob and Flory discovered
the genre as they attended
estate sales and auctions over
the years. In addition to their
personal collection, the goal
was to build a collection and
endow the Orange County
Historical Museumwith their
collection and to participate in
events bringing the surviving
Highwaymen artists to events
at the Orlando museum.
That act of "giving back"
was done to honor Wolf and
Tybe for all their work.
Our elders in long term care should not be forgotten! The
Jewish Pavilion ensures that they are visited and that they con-
tinue to participate in Jewish life, enjoying Shabbat and Holidays.
Your support is needed to care for the Jewish elderly.

Bob and Flory Kahn in front of the National Museum of
African American History and Culture.
A couple of years ago, Bob
and Flory Kahn got in touch
with the Smithsonian Institu-
tion about Florida Highway-
men artwork they had been
collecting over the years. They
felt it would be a meaningful
addition to the future National
Museum of African American
History and Culture. Museum
representatives came to Or-
lando to see and accept the
collection.
Last September, the Kahns
were honored by the Smith-
sonian Institution for their
gift to the new museum in
Washington, D.C.
Bob is the eldest son of
Wolf and Tybe Kahn, in whose
honor the gift of a Collection
of Florida Highwaymen paint-
ings were presented.
"My parents were very
much aware of the racial is-
sues of the day, long before
it became a worthy cause,"
said Bob.
"Amgng his many activi-
ties, Wolfwould go to the labor
camps on Sundays, during
the 1950s and 196
teach swimming and arfl By
chance, he met and worked
with a number of the black
artists. He recognized their
capabilities and provided
encouragement for them to
pursue their passion for art."
