Education was considered highly important in the eyes of John Mann’s late wife, Phyllis Marie Walsten Mann. 

Phyllis attended a one-room country school in Reno County. She completed her high school education at Hutchinson High School and then completed a pre-nursing program at the community college. In 1951, she received her bachelors of science in nursing from the University of Kansas, then was employed at KU Medical Center. She took a short leave of absence in 1961 to earn her masters of nursing from the University of Washington in Seattle.

Meadowlark Hills offers two full-service salons, right on campus! The Pizazz Hair and Body Boutique is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays and Wednesday through Friday and is located in the Community Center.

Flair Hair and Body Care is located in the lower level of Bramlage and Wroten households. It is open on Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Gather together as a community to send off two Meadowlark Hills residents as they venture to Washington D.C. as part of the Honor Flight Network.

A reception will take place during Coffee Corner at 3 p.m. Tuesday, June 18, in the Community Room. Following the reception at 3:30 p.m., friends, family and community members will line the street on Meadowlark Road as the Legion Riders escort our honorees out of town.

John Lindholm and Ed Call, both World War II veterans, were selected to be part of the Honor Flight.   

Q: Annie, you were out of the office the last week for a few days, what were you up to?

A: Thank you for noticing. I was invited to speak at a leadership conference in California, over the leadership program I have been co-writing.
