Lacy the duck and owner, “Toot” Mecherly spend some time with resident Morris Berger.
It’s not unusual for residential care communities, especially those caring for seniors, to have a cat or two, or even a dog, to brighten the lives of their residents. At Chestnut Knoll we have a wide variety of resident animals as well as visiting! In addition to cats and dogs, there are fish, turtles, Lovebirds named Fred and Ethel, and even a duck named Lacy! she visits the residents every Wednesday with her owner Erminie Mercherly, a long-time Chestnut Knoll volunteer known to everyone as ”Toot.” Toot loves to remind everyone that “We don’t serve duck at Chestnut Knoll!” She smiles and remarks on how everyone looks forward to seeing the animals, especially Lacy.
