Once upon a time.... this was the STANDARD O P in The Villages, everyone helped everyone and especially any neighbor who had a medical challenge. Now ? Not so much ! I'm sure some villages and neighborhoods are better than others, but BIG CHANGES have taken place, some "neighbors" have never spoken to anyone on the street, never introduce themselves, and certainly do no join in the social "club" of the village or neighborhood. It's sad to see this happen... good for you to at least try to promote this ! ! WE NEED MORE OF "how it used to be", that's for sure ! Could also help to have fewer, or even prohibit, the in and out "motel" like use of homes here. Wonder how many would like to see some "rules", or restrictions, or are things just too far gone with anything goes ?
