The Memory Care neighborhood at Atria Del Sol whipped up a tasty treat.

They channeled their inner chef to create a dessert that doesn't require any baking – a chocolate eclair cake! Just add Cool Whip, graham crackers, Jell-O vanilla pudding, chocolate and a little love.

So simple and so yummy!

Who knew moving to Atria Seville could spark a beautiful friendship?

(Spoiler alert, we did. 😉)

Jeanne and Rickie, once strangers, now share their days filled with laughter. Whether you catch them waiting excitedly to go to meals or immersed in their art projects, their bond is truly something special. They embrace every opportunity to explore together on lunch outings and see live entertainment, and lead resident council meetings together.

Rickie says, “We’re such good friends,” and Jeanne jumps in with a chuckle, “that we finish each other’s sentences!”

When Hurricane Michael destroyed Portia’s Florida home, her daughter Danna worried about what would come next. What they found was more than just a safe place to live – it was a community that celebrates Portia’s talents as an artist and creates new friendships while providing the support she needs.

“I really like that there are nurses there and there’s a doctor who comes by once a week,” Danna says. “It puts me at ease to know that there are people there in case she needs anything health-wise.”

A big celebration was held at Atria Park of Ann Arbor for Daryl's 101st birthday!

When we asked her what 101 years of life is like, she said, "It's been all over the map – I've had good times and bad times. But I'm very grateful to have lived for this long. Life is still fun!"

She likes going for rides, being with her kids, reading, sleeping, and of course, ice cream. "There is always time for ice cream," she adds.

Join us in wishing Daryl a happy birthday! 🥳

Paul's got the beat!

Not only is he a wonderful member of the kitchen staff at Atria Maplewood Place, but he's also a professional drummer!

He recently brought the community's courtyard to life, transporting his drum set all the way from home to share his talents with residents.

"I started banging on pots and pans as a kid before taking lessons and eventually attending Berklee College of Music," he shares. Over the years, Paul has played in all kinds of bands and even does studio work when he can.

We are so fortunate when we get to see the amazing hidden talents of our team. Thanks for sharing your music with us, Paul!
