“ I love sitting outside with my husband and black lab , Lucy ,” she begins . “ My husband built a large garden this year and watching the fruits of his incredible labor has been amazing . We also enjoy our 17 chickens and three sheep . I love spending time with all of our adult children and herding the sheep and collecting warm eggs with my grandchildren .”
“ I also love attending church ; the music and challenging and inspirational messages strengthen me daily ,” Tami adds . “ I enjoy walking with friends at the park year-round too – and love to play basketball , soccer , football , have tea parties , do art projects and read books with my grandchildren anytime .”
From Club to Community & Beyond
So what does someone who is known for being on the giving side of things get out of being a member in the Sterling Silver Club ?
“ I love reading the articles and recipes and getting invites for different exercise classes ,” starts Tami . “ And the resources the club offers are great ! You get a discount at the Renown gift shop and there are savings at local restaurants for members to enjoy .”
“ But what ’ s truly special to me ,” she continues , “ is that the club creates a community . During COVID , we realized more than ever that we need each other , we were created for community and friendships – and too many seniors feel alone .

And if Tami could ask anything of the world , we wondered , what would she ask ?
“ I would ask everyone to consider what it would look like if we all stopped and chose to serve others several times a day with no strings attached ,” she says thoughtfully . “ Putting someone else ’ s needs before our own … what an example and legacy we would leave for our children and grandchildren .”
We hope the world is listening .
