Tia Stokes, Resident Care Manager

   Like many Hearthstone team members, Tia Stokes is a life-long Lancastrian.  She grew up in Elizabethtown, graduated from Elizabethtown High School, and lives in Maytown with her husband, Terry, and daughters, Briana and Caitlin.

   Tia began her nursing career at Masonic Homes where she earned her Certified Nursing Assistant, CNA, designation.  She joined the Hearthstone team shortly after Hearthstone Manor of Mount Joy opened.  Tia liked the holistic approach to care at Hearthstone.  As she puts it, “I like taking care of every aspect of a person’s needs, not just their physical needs.”  At Hearthstone, Tia imbues her entire team with her whole-person approach to personal care.

Jason Hampton , Head Chef

  Jason Hampton grew up in Holtwood, near lock 12 and the Normanwood Bridge.  His parents owned Tucquan Vineyards, and Jason remembers pressing the grapes, bottling the wine, and labeling the bottles. In fact, Jason remembers childhood summers being non-stop work.  No wonder that Jason has such an amazing work ethic now!

  Jason received his Associates Degree in Culinary Arts from Johnson & Wales College graduating with honors in 2000.   Jason’s restaurant experience includes Casarillo’s, Hadyn Zugs, and the Log Cabin.  Jason also worked with the dining services teams at Franklin & Marshall College, Brethren Village, and the executive dining room at Hershey Foods.  

  Jason and his wife, Jen, have two daughters, Maia and Madalyn, and one dog, Steve.   Jason says, “I joined Hearthstone Manor because I wanted to run my own kitchen, and I wanted to spend more time with my family.”  We’re glad to have him as a member of the Hearthstone family.

Joan Marie Norman Administrator

    Joan Marie Norman grew up in Lebanon County as one of seven children.  She graduated from Lebanon High School and earned her bachelor’s degree at Slippery Rock State College.  When Joan Marie returned to Lebanon County, she joined the staff of the Good Samaritan Hospital where she became the Executive Director of the hospital's Homemaker/Home Health Aide Agency and, later, the Performance Improvement Coordinator/Home Health Aide Supervisor for the Visiting Nurse Association.

   Throughout her career, Joan Marie has been deeply involved in the Lebanon community.  While her three children were young, Joan Marie was active in the Girl Scouts and the Cub Scouts.  She also coached fast-pitch softball for the Lebanon County girls team, and became a mentor for many of them.   Other community activities include service on the Board of the United Way of Lebanon County, the Advisory Council of the Lebanon County Office of Aging, the Lebanon Council of Human Service Agencies, the Lebanon High School Athletic Booster Association and the Lebanon High School Superintendent’s Parent Advisory Committee. 

   As you may have guessed, sports are Joan Marie’s outlet.  She and her husband, Chuck, love to bicycle and are avid fans of the local sports teams.  We’re happy to have Joan Marie’s energy and enthusiasm leading the Hearthstone Manor team in Lebanon.

Emilisson Rolon

Resident Care Manager

   Emilisson Rolon, known to everyone as ‘Missy,’ describes herself as “a family person.”   She grew up in Lebanon, and she stayed.

   Missy chose her career in nursing at the age of twelve, after watching her mother care for her fraternal grandmother.  She received her LPN training at the Lebanon Career and Technology Center, honed her skills in the nursing unit at Cornwall Manor, and came to Hearthstone Manor in order to have more interaction with residents.  Her mentor and her best friend was her maternal grandmother, ‘Grandma Dolly.’  Missy is proud of the fact that she was able to use her nursing skills to help care for Grandma Dolly during the months before she died.

    Missy and her husband, Jesse, have two sons, Devonte and Marquis.  In her spare time, Missy enjoys attending her sons’ sports events and cooking.

Carol Lymaster

Manager, Dining Services

Carol Lymaster's experience in restaurant management is truly remarkable.  Growing up in Lebanon, she started working as a waitress in the family's Seven Fathoms restaurant, eventually becoming the manager of the "front of the house." Carol's next stop was southern California, where she headed the catering arm of Henre's Restaurant. While there, she catered events for as many as 600 people for major companies including Disney.  Eventually, she returned to her Lebanon roots, joining the staff of the Fenwick as the Beverage Manager.  Then, an opportunity came to work with her father again, this time running the kitchen at the Navy Club.  We can hardly believe that we attracted her to Hearthstone, where her skills and warm personality delight everyone.
