loha! Residents at Jewish Senior Life’s Hechtman Apartments in West 
Bloomfield only had to travel to the building’s activity room to enjoy a 
festive tropical getaway on Aug. 20. The community’s first-ever Luau Party, 
planned by Hechtman Apartments’ Life Enrichment coordinator Tova Schreiber, was 
a huge hit among the more than 40 attendees who donned leis around their necks 
and feasted on popular island treats like plantain chips, pineapple, coconut candy, 
fruit punch and more. The room was decorated with brightly colored tablecloths, 
pink flamingos and tropical foliage. Entertainer Ron Devon performed upbeat island 
music and popular Jimmy Buffett songs while the residents sang along.
