Our Leadership Team

Linda Lucas
Executive Director

Hi, My name is Linda Lucas and I am the Executive Director of Village on the Thames.

I studied Business Marketing and Office Administration and am happily married with two grown children and two wonderful grandchildren.

I have been working with Seniors in our community for almost 20 years. I started in Long- Term Care, moved to Community Care, and was an Executive Director in Senior Recreation. I am happy to move into Seniors Living because of my passion for seniors. I hope to enhance our home, and look forward to meaningful relationships with staff, residents and our community.

Jane Evans
Director of Wellness

I am a registered nurse with 15 + yrs experience dedicated to caring for patients of all age groups. My goal has always been to ensure my clients receive top quality health care. I have extensive knowledge and expertise working and collaborating with a variety of local Health Organizations, which allows me the opportunity to advocate for my clients in a unique way.

My background as Director of Health and Wellbeing at Lakefield College School has been a great opportunity for me to work in a residential setting and provide Holistic care to a large community of students, staff, and families living on campus.

It is now my pleasure to be able to serve seniors, and provide the same holistic approach to Mental Health and Wellbeing, as I have to other age groups over the years. My purpose at Village on the Thames is to ensure our residents receive the kind of individualized care they deserve at this stage in life, in a warm and caring environment!
