TEAM 5 STAR

Join Us to Walk to End Alzheimer's

MEET OUR CONCIERGE TEAM

Caring and Compassionate

LEE ENRY ERICKSON

Lee Erickson joins our 5 Star Concierge team with an eclectic background that includes being a freelance consultant in public relations, marketing, online community management, the co-director of a vision therapy clinic, and an underwriting accounts representative for two nonprofit community radio stations until she retired. Lee has served as a volunteer with nonprofit organizations such as the Alzheimer's Association, BRING, Eugene Mission and Olycap - outreach to the underserved and homeless, and is a member of Personal Historians NW.

Before joining 5 Star Concierge, during her retirement years, Lee’s focus was on the care of her aging mother whose health was failing due to the complications of Alzheimer's, her stepfather during his illness, and her husband who was diagnosed with Vascular Dementia.

After such great losses, Lee prayed to God that she would once again find purpose, to be of service to others, all the while supplementing her income working part time. This led her to a serendipitous meeting with the owner, Lori Lock of 5 Star Concierge, who invited Lee to join our team to assist with community outreach and serve our clients as a personal assistant. “It was a direct answer to prayer!”

Lee  says: "I love being with my family first and foremost, and simply being at home with my cat, Gracie, tending to my garden. My other interests are aromatherapy, nutrition, cooking healthy ethnic cuisine, walking, reading, writing poetry, photography, and traveling."

MELISSA STEWARD

Melissa Steward is the proud mother of four “amazing” children. Two of them are her stepchildren who she has known since they were two and four. Her oldest is sixteen and her youngest is one. They’re a go-go family: from dance competitions to horse jumping competitions. When Melissa is not with her family she is working with her “amazing” clients. Prior to joining our 5 Star Concierge team, Melissa has worked in many fields from running the front desk at a chiropractic office to being a dental assistant. 

Melissa says: “A couple of things you will notice about me when we meet is that I am a people person and a helper bee. I love people, I love talking and getting to know everyone.  I love to help in any way I can.”

PHIL POCHUREK

Phil Pochurek grew up in Corvallis, Oregon. Phil considers himself “a little old school.” He doesn't smoke or drink and says that “if you’re not fifteen minutes early you’re late.” He has been a paper mill worker, a resort manager, a landscaper, a caregiver, and is a poet and author.

Phil started mowing lawns when he was eleven years old, and had an Oregonian paper route every morning at six o’clock rain or shine from the seventh grade through high school. Phil’s father passed away when he was eighteen. He tried a little college then joined the workforce at Brand S Plywood in Corvallis at age twenty, working there for thirteen and a half years until the economy stalled in 1984. He then went to work for American Can in August of 1984, which became James River then Georgia Pacific in Halsey (OR). Phil bought his first house in Eugene (OR), married, and had a daughter in 1989. He worked there until 2008 in their secondary fiber plant. From there he moved up the McKenzie River and managed The Wayfarer Resort for eighteen months; crossed the river and became the caretaker of a beautiful home on Brown’s Hole for eighteen more months until he returned to Springfield where he would live the next five years. It was during that time Phil worked for New Horizons In-Home Care for 18 months and got his feet wet as a caregiver. In 2017, Phil and his partners started a landscaping business and moved to Woodburn (OR). After four years there, Phil returned to Eugene in 2021, alone. Having found himself

with an excess of time, empathy, and compassion he found his way to Lori Lock and Five Star Concierge. 

Phil says: “The rewards I have discovered in caring and doing for our senior clients is priceless! The wisdom and grace I receive from helping them with their needs has been rewarding and fulfilling. Through the careful guidance of Lori and 5 Star Concierge,

at last I have finally found my purpose.”

BILL LOCK

Bill Lock was born in Illinois just outside the Chicago area in cornfield country. He was fortunate to be able to travel world wide with his parents while he was in high school.  He graduated high school there and went to a couple different colleges majoring in accounting.

Bill went to work for a liquor wholesaler as credit manager and purchasing agent and worked there for nine years until they went out of business. Turns out he was working for the Mafia... so he went back to school and got a degree in landscape design.  He then moved to the Kansas City, MO area and worked for a nursery/landscape company.  

Bill moved to Bandon (OR) and went to work for a home medical equipment company, which specialized in the respiratory end of the business.  He ended up working there for twenty years, living in Bandon, Coos Bay, and finally transferring to Eugene.  Most of his time was spent in warehouse management while overseeing/managing the drivers and home delivery schedules. He then worked his way up to become the manager in Eugene.

Bill left there and after a year of trying his hand at a working from home scheme, he went to work for another home medical equipment company for 5 years.  He retired from there to help his wife, Lori, with 5 Star Concierge.

Bill says: "I like animals (we have 2 dogs), hiking, and family, playing with our kids  and grandkids.  I have played a lot of golf, scuba-dived, hang-glided, parachuted, zip-lined, done a lot of camping, played a lot of basketball, and enjoy the great outdoors."

CASIE JOSEPH

Casie Joseph started caregiving in 1989, caring for a young female quadriplegic. In 1994, she was a personal caregiver for an elderly woman who suffered from dementia. In 1999, she moved to Central Oregon where she became  the administrator for Rosetta Senior Living. In 2016, She moved to Medford and worked for Home Instead, caring for the elderly that included: Alzheimer's, dementia, and those recovering from major surgery. 

Casie says: "I have many hobbies, including sewing and crocheting. I enjoy day trips to the coast, and being with my children and seven grandchildren."

TESTIMONIAL

Satisfied Client

At 5 Star Concierge it is our mission to give our clients the best care we can provide by working with them or their loved ones to access their needs and create personalized services that specifically meets their non-medical needs. Here's what one of our clients has to say about his experience using our services and working with our team. *****

Last year my wife and I decided to move closer to her family.  My wife and I found a suitable home for us, which we remodeled. Unfortunately not long after we moved in, my wife passed away. I put everything I owned into storage and went to live with my brother and his wife in Colorado to receive medical treatment and to heal. In time I decided to move back to the home my wife and I had purchased in Oregon. My daughter arranged for the team of 5 Star Concierge to unload and unpack boxes, move in and arrange my furnishings and decor to stage my home for my return. 5 Star Concierge did an excellent job turning my empty house into a warm and inviting home ready for me to return with just a turn of the key. I am grateful for the care they took including setting up my kitchen and stocking my refrigerator and pantry with staples. 5 Star Concierge can be an excellent resource for seniors that need help.
