The Beginning of the Wyndholme Village
Family Tree |
| Meet
the people essential to the creation and development of Wyndholme Village. It was
Grace and Jerry Lancelotta who inspired their son, Jim, to explore the possibility of
creating a model community designed for deaf and hard-of-hearing seniors. After
meeting Barbara Willigan and the Maryland Association of the Deaf Senior Citizens
Committee, Jim Lancelotta was more determined than ever to build Wyndholme Village. |

completed. |
