OBITUARY NANCY LOUISE SPURIA Mission House partners Nancy Louise Spuria, a longtime resident of Ponte Vedra, died May 11, 2016. She was born October 10, 1937 in Newton, Mass. In 1954, Nancy met the love of her life, Tony Spuria, on a blind date. In 1955, she with Art 4 Charities graduated from Newton High School. After a brief stint at Gamewell Corporation (the world’s leading fire alarm box manufactur- er), she and Tony were married in 1958, and have been inseparable ever since. In 1959, Nancy and Tony started their family with the birth of Karen (the apple of Nancy’s eye). Nancy’s finest accomplishment, David, was born shortly after in 1960, and Joseph (the black sheep of the family whom Nancy adored) was born in 1963. As Tony embarked on his meteoric rise in the corporate world, Nancy served as CEO of Spuria Inc., setting up home in Newton, Mass.; Derwood, MD; Winston Salem, NC; San Antonio, TX; and Ponte Vedra; and raising two bright and beautiful children (Joe was not all that bright or beautiful). In addition to raising a family and putting up with Tony, Nancy enjoyed minia- ture doll housing (as the proprietress of the retail juggernaut “Miss Muffet’s Miniatures”) and tooling around in her 1957 Ford Photo courtesy of Art 4 Charities Thunderbird.

Classic cars greeted guests as they arrived at the new Arbor Terrace San Jose, located at 3760 Dupont Ave. in Jacksonville. Guests also enjoyed entertainment from a jazz trio along with a variety of hors d’oeuvres, wine and Tom Collins cocktails in keeping with the event’s theme. Licensed for 70 residents, the facility follows the model of Arbor Terrace’s Ponte Vedra and Ortega locations, with different “neighborhoods” for people at various stages of memory loss. “The separate neighborhoods enable residents with similar memory acuity to live together, and allows for engagement and care to be tailored to their needs,” said John Carey of Whitehall Realty Partners, which developed the property in conjunction with The Arbor Co. Carey said Arbor Terrace’s three facilities help fill a need for dedicated memory care in the Jacksonville area. “We were very purposeful in selecting locations throughout the Jacksonville area where we thought there was a great need,” he said.

By Dr. Erika Hamer Special to the Recorder Longevity, the length or duration of human lives, is an intriguing topic that has been studied by numerous researchers. Many methods or strate- gies have been proposed to increase the average human lifespan, but finding concrete evidence of what works and what doesn’t is often challenging. In most cases, living a longer life is a multidimensional achievement that involves avoiding disease and disability, keeping high levels of physical and cognitive function, and staying engaged in social, leisure and other productive activities. The search to understand the secrets of longevity is more than simply about discovering how to live longer; it is also about how to live a healthier, happier and more meaningful life. Studying regions of the world where people live measurably longer lives can provide us all with some important insights on keys to meaningful longevity. These regions have been labeled “blue zones” by two researchers, Gianni Pes and Michel Poulin, who used it to describe longevity hotspots — regions of the world that produce the greatest concentration of centenarians. Residents of these areas are known to experience fewer life-reducing diseases and enjoy longer, healthier lives. Blue zones are scattered across the globe in towns in Japan, Italy, Costa Rica, Greece and the United States.
