A Word From the Editor

Dear Lincoln 55+ Readers,

Thank you to many of our readers for letting us know that you loved our Summer Edition of Lincoln 55+. Providing the kind of content that you enjoy reading is very important to our team. It’s what guides us to bring you stories of interest, things to do, and much more.

We’re excited about the articles in our Fall magazine. We were thrilled when we got the opportunity to sit down with Ted Carter, Jr., President of the University of Nebraska, to get his viewpoint on everything from what he loves about being in Lincoln, to the challenges during the pandemic, to the changes he and his team have implemented that will impact students well into the future. Read his interview on page 12.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It gave me an opportunity to talk with my friend, Diane Brennan, an oncology nurse practitioner and a breast cancer survivor. There are many unknowns when someone is first diagnosed with breast cancer. On page 32, read what Diane learned through her journey and how she is helping other women now.

From how to avoid falling victim to a scam, winterizing your home, and fun activities to get you outdoors and enjoy the Fall weather, there’s something for everyone.

We invite you to grab a cup of your favorite coffee or tea, find a comfy setting, and relax while you find joy in our Fall Edition of Lincoln 55+.

Jacque Genovese Executive Editor
