Theodore thrives in every environment!
The busy team of Theodore and Karen visit an assisted living facility, a library, a school, a hospital, Ronald MacDonald House and a hospice.
Theodore loves his monthly visits to Palm Garden Assisted Living where everyone knows him by name, perking up eagerly when he comes in. Accompanying the team is Emma F., a burgeoning country singer, and it’s magical when they both appear.
Theodore also loves their library visits. The children gravitate to him and he revels in their attention.

Theodore lives in a 55+ community, is quite the celebrity, and was even named The Mayor of Stonecreek. In his down time, he loves doing private home visits. He’s also the Grand Marshal of their 5K Run each October, leading the runners. As part of the Golf Cart Concert Series, he and Emma F. ride around in “his” golf cart and Emma sings to the residents. (On the golf cart, he loves wearing his accessories, which includes bibs, sunglasses and hats).
As for his antics … Theodore will only drink water from a cooler and there must be ice involved. He eats lying down and his mom serves him every meal. He loves to jump on the bed and spin around like a rabbit. He loves to self soothe with either his giant alligator or giant hedgehog.

Now this ambitious team aims to continue doing even more of the work they love.
