  1. Hello Rathsenior conNEXTions.

    My name is Gene Rosson, 93 yo, good health, active, fairly secure, married. Mostly isolated because old friends have “sailed over the bar”, retired engineer, not yet entirely senile,

    Would be interested in meeting other seniors for general interest in sciences, do it yourself projects, Sailing, woodworking, machine shop practices, lying about the size of fish I caught, and more. I am a math hobby geek who does math problems for fun. Only rarely will I discuss religion or politics.

    Do you have meet and greet sessions, pen pals, or something of that kind?

    Best regards

    Gene

    • Hi Gene,

      Thanks for reaching out to the Rath Center. It is good to hear from you.

      Our primary function is to act as a referral agency, to direct seniors with problems/issues/questions to get the help they need. We also conduct a Senior Scholars class session twice a year, with various classes. I will add you to our email list, and you will get a notification for our next set of classes. If any of the classes interest you, that might be a good place to meet new folks, if

      We present an educational meeting each month, on the second Tuesday at 9:00 AM. The next one will be on October 10th, and the subject will be Open Season for Social Security, with 3 speakers with varying backgrounds.

      While we don’t have meet and greet sessions per say, the educational meetings might be a good place to meet new folks. in the mean time, feel free to call 863-220-7002, and talk to Charlie Burdette–he is our volunteer at that number, and has been with the Rath Center for a good while, and might be able to steer you in the direction you want to go.

      The Monthly Educational Meetings and the classes are held at our office rented at 934 South Blvd, Lakeland, FL (College Heights United Methodist Church).

      Thanks again, Gene, for reaching out to us, and hope to see you soon,

      Joe Echols, Rath Volunteer, Treasurer, Board member, and IT Specialist
