A life well lived, a great attitude, and a community full of family and friends that adore him at Covenant/CHAI is what gives Ben Feldman, 101, the strength to look forward to his upcoming 102nd birthday in December. Ben moved to Covenant House 37 years ago. In 1991, he lost his wife to cancer. Although alone now, he keeps busy surrounded by friends and using the many programs and services subsidized housing offers — classes, religious services, hot kosher group meals, housekeeping services and more. He said, “Covenant House keeps you young. You don’t have to be alone. You can eat dinner every night with friends, and if you need assistance you can get help right away.” When Ben turned 100, he shared this thought: “Becoming 100 feels like you are 100. I have trouble getting my socks on… but everybody loves me.”
