Cornada B., 96, Madisonville, KY

Cornada Bowling, a resident of Hillside Villa Care & Rehabilitation Center in Madisonville, KY had her Twilight Wish  to ride a motorcycle and eat hot wings granted, thanks to a partnership between Twilight Wish and the operator of the nursing center, SunBridge Healthcare. 

Cornada has been a resident of Hillside Villa for more than two years.  According to the staff there, despite her age, Cornada is still full of life and says exactly what she thinks, earning her the nickname “Sassy.” Her one regret is that she feels as though she was never daring or surprised her family in any way.  Her wish to ride in a motorcycle sidecar and go to the local Applebee’s for hot wings and beer was granted on Saturday, May 12, 2012. Special thanks to the River City Hog Chapter #1210  and members Sherry and Rick Dile of Evansville who made the trip to Madisonville to give Cornada her ride of a lifetime!  Pictured: Cornada’s great nephew, Spud Webb congratulates her after her ride with Sherry & Rick Dile and Carol Britt and Jeanetta Gillespie of Hillside Villa.
