The Phoenix Residence would like to congratulate Jon Colby from Douglas House for Outstanding Leader and Gwen Spencer as Employee of the Year. Thank you for your years of service and dedication to our organization!
Jon Colby ~ 2015 Outstanding Leader
Quote from the nomination:
“Jon Colby has been a manager for many years with The Phoenix Residence. He has lived his life alongside the individuals he has been caring for throughout his and their lives. He often will tell you I have learned so much from them and they have learned from me. Over the years, Jon has been Santa Claus, an athletic coach, a friend, banker, personal assistance, grievance councilor, barber, and most importantly, considered one of the family. I often hear family members express such gratitude for Jon. Jon’s word is simple; do onto others how you would like to be treated with fairness, kindness, and with a smile”
Gwen Spencer ~ 2015 Employee of the Year
Quote from the nomination:
“Gwen is very welcoming to everyone who walks through our doors. She keeps the house in beautiful shape, no matter what the day throws her way. She constantly keeps top-of-mind what is the most important part of our job; the quality of life for our individuals. She has a calm, level-headed way about her and how she gets her duties done. She is one of the most pleasant people I have ever met and look forward to working with her for a long time. Thank you Gwen!”
