Baby Boomers’ Love For Pickleball from page 1B

Association, 2.8 million people played
the sport in 2017, and 75 percent of core
players, those who play over eight times
a week, were 55 years and older. Of that
percentage, 66 percent are over 66 years
old and 27.5 percent are between 40 and
59.
Pickleball venues have grown 375
percent in the past eight years, with St.
Louis boasting 30 pickleball facilities.
Medical research shows that endor-
phins released by exercise help to ele-
vate self-esteem and combat depres-
sion.
“Why are baby boomers and seniors
taking to this so quickly?” Callahan
asked. “Because it’s easy to play, it’s very
social, and it’s less stressful on muscles,
tendons and joints. Former tennis play-
ers who, for physical reasons, cannot
play the way they used to are enjoying
pickleball as much as non-racquet
sports players.”
Callahan, who also teaches at Tower
Grove Tennis Center in Tower Grove
Park, was recently “holding court” at
Frontenac Racquet Club.
“We have lessons for beginners and
intermediates, and they just want to
have fun,” he said. “But there’s a certain
percentage that are getting ready for a
tournament and they want to raise their
game as much as possible.”
This particular morning, eight
women were on the courts having a ball.
Warson Woods resident Carolyn
Peterson has been playing for just a few
months.
“I had no experience in sports, but
the couple of times I played it was really
fun. I felt confident that I could play this
game without a lot of experience,” she
said. “I jumped into it and I’m playing
five times a week.”
Bibi Franceschelli is from Sunset
Hills.

Marty O’Leary’s creations will be on display
at Old Orchard Gallery in Webster Groves
by Izzy Colon
She stood at the Mediterranean.
Looking down at the crisp blue water,
from the light brown sand to the white
foam and clear sky, Marty O’Leary took
in the image of the Spanish sea.
“From the waves down to the sand, it
looks just like the Mediterranean,”
O’Leary said, describing her replication
of the image in her quilt depicting the
vibrant scene.
The Webster Groves resident makes
her home at the Pacific Place retire-
ment community. She began quilting 10
years ago to create a wedding gift for her
oldest granddaughter. Inspired by other
family members asking for quilts of
their own, O’Leary has been quilting
ever since. She has created 27 quilts in
the past 10 years.
O’Leary followed in the footsteps of
her great-grandmother who was also an
avid quilter. She honors her by using her
signature feather wreath pattern on a
label attached to the back of her quilts.
“They’re not just regular quilts,”
O’Leary said, who make all her quilts by
hand. “I don’t follow any patterns. It
takes me a long time to figure out what I
want to do. I like putting the colors
together.”
Anyone can machine quilt, according
to O’Leary, but the method of hand
quilting is much more difficult and time
consuming. She tries to work on her
quilting for a couple of hours a day, but
October 19 – 25, 2018
often loses track of time as she quilts
and watches television.
“I don’t know what people do who
don’t have hobbies,” O’Leary said.
“What do they do with their time? I like
to create things. To show something.”
O’Leary’s daughter, Luanne Rimel,
said her dedication to quilting can be
tied to her making quilts for family
members. While her family lives
throughout the country, O’Leary con-
nects with her family members through
the quilts she makes for them.
“She really thinks about not just the
colors they like but also the things they
like,” Rimel said. “A lot of people make
quilts with what they want to see. But
(O’Leary) makes the quilts based on
what the recipient likes.”
The public can view O’Leary’s quilts
beginning with an Open House on her
90th birthday, Friday, Nov. 9, 5 to 8 p.m.
at Old Orchard Gallery, located at 39 S.
Orchard Ave. in Webster Groves. The
quilts will be on display through the
month of November.
“I’m opening it for people from
Pacific Place, church and my book dis-
cussion group – anyone who wants to
come,” O’Leary said. “I think a lot of
people will be there. I have people who
are really interested in seeing my quilts
and I’m excited for all the kids to be
there for my birthday.”

Aging Gracefully With Compassionate Care

Webster Groves’
Melanie Maynor
serves as advocate
for senior clients
by Mary Shapiro
Webster Groves resident Melanie
Maynor is passionate about giving peo-
ple the chance to write their own sto-
ries’ late-life chapters.
With that in mind, 10 years ago, she
founded Aging Gracefully, which brings
care management to clients’ homes. As
a geriatric care manager, she is a health
and human services specialist who acts
as a guide and advocates for families
who are caring for older relatives or dis-
abled adults.
Aging Gracefully evolved out of a
natural progression.
Maynor grew up in a small town in
southern Louisiana surrounded by
grandparents and great-grandparents.
“I loved hearing their stories and
interacting with the older generation,”
she said.
She studied psychology at Belhaven
College then completed a master’s in
Social Work at Washington University
with a concentration in gerontology and
a specialization in family therapy. She is
also a certified care manager. As a social
worker, she worked in psychiatric, med-
ical and geriatric settings.
“When I was 22, my mom died of
cancer,” Maynor said. “At the time, I
realized how much we just needed an

advocate, to navigate situations and cre-
ate a plan of care.
“I feel passionate about bringing
intentional and personalized care to
every family we serve,” she said.
She’s been married for almost 20
years to Peter Maynor, a marriage and
family therapist. Their daughter Lillian,
16, is a sophomore at Webster Groves
High School, while son Grayson, 13, is
an eighth grader at Hixson Middle
School.
“Just before Aging Gracefully, I was
working part time after I had my kids,
doing work for a company that did geri-
atric care management. It turned out to
from several times a week to twice a
month. This may be ongoing or can be
used for times of respite such as cover-
age for a caregiver vacation.
Aging Gracefully also can provide
services to care for clients’ needs, as
well as provide rest for family and care-
givers. Those services include transpor-
tation; appointment companionship,
shopping, organization, errand running,
etc.
The company also provides media-
tion, having staff function as a non-anx-
ious presence. Maynor said this is often
helpful to families in making decisions.
Staff can meet with all the parties
involved in a patient’s care to make a
plan that meets the needs of all caregiv-
ers and patients.
Rebecca Ward, a 1967 Webster
Groves High School graduate who lives
in Washington state, said Aging

er, Emma DuBose, for about six years.

times stopping and visiting neighbors
or going out to lunch.
“She would set up gatherings or par-

with friends were going on or if I was

was in assisted living, Melanie would
ensure mom would go to events, if they
were appropriate.”
