Our residents smile, laugh, and a few "shake a leg"...

Hey Walter! The Beau Ridge Memory Care Community wanted to say “THANK YOU” for the great entertainment you have given to our loving residents and staff. We enjoy seeing our residents smile, laugh, and a few “shake a leg.” We always look forward to having you visit our community. Leqeata Henderson Activities Director

He ministers to them through his music, his jokes, his smile, encouragement, hugs, and love...

It's hard to adequately express how much I appreciate Walter Herbison. He is a very kind, talented and caring person who gives so much of his time to the residents in many nursing homes, assisted living homes, VA homes, etc. across Mississippi. He ministers to them through his music, his jokes, his smile, encouragement, hugs, and love. Daddy loves Walter so much and enjoys hearing him sing. Thank you, Walter, for coming to Joy Health and Rehab today. As I've told you many tim

"He is one of the best performers and it's obvious that he really cares for our residents&q

Walter Herbison has played for our community at Chateau Ridgeland for over eight years. The residents and staff love to hear him sing and tell his funny jokes. He is one of the best performers and it’s obvious that he really cares for our residents. Thank you Walter for making our residents so happy with your lovely music. -Kim Palmer

A unique ministry that is so very needed today for our precious elderly, both military and civilian.

I have nothing but praise for the ministry that my long time friend and colleague does. He travels up to 3 or 4 times a week with his program of music and joy. He has a heart for the elderly. He performs at Veterans Homes as well as other nursing homes, assisted living facilities and memory care communities. His repertoire includes many kinds of music. I have shared several programs with him and seen how the residents respond to his warm personality, songs and fun stories. He

This ministry is so special because it brings them music, laughter, and love...

My beautiful mother, Naisy Brunetti, spent the last eight years of her life in assisted living. It was always such a special treat when Walter Herbison came to perform and visit! He made each resident feel special, and to watch them clapping, tapping their feet and laughing at his (sometimes corny) jokes was truly a gift! It is a sad fact that in today's society many of our seniors, rather than being treasured, are forgotten. Walter's ministry is so special because he doesn't

Joy, joy, joy, that's what it brings...

Joy, joy, joy!! Walter Herbison brings joy as he sings those old familiar tunes that make us want to tap our feet and those who are able, to get up and shake a leg! There are many musicians out there that serve the senior adult community, but Walter is one that not only performs, he also cares and it is clear that he loves what he does and cares deeply for his audience. Unfortunately, the senior adult industry, assisted living, memory care units, are not financially equipp

Joy Outreach Ministries always makes her day...

My Mom fell in love with Walter when she moved from her home into an Assisted Living Home in Cleveland, Mississippi. It made her transition so much easier. She often would call and excitedly say, "Walter is coming." It would make me feel so good knowing that she would have a good day. He means so much to her and I thank him from the bottom of my heart for his ministry. He knows how to make her day. This ministry is a precious gift from God. -Katherine Simmons Willis
