Frasier Life Plan Community Serving Boulder since 1960, Frasier is a purpose-driven nonprofit Life Plan Community offering vibrant senior living and comprehensive care. and Mrs.

Frasier, located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, offers an exceptional Boulder setting, close to everywhere you’d like to be, with an enriching lifestyle and an involved community. Boulder is recognized as one of America’s best-educated, most active, happiest, and healthiest communities. It is a top travel and recreation destination with an average of 300 sunny days each year. Since 1960, Frasier has provided exceptional quality services to seniors. As a not-for-profit Life Plan community, the needs of our residents always come first. Our residents in independent living, assisted living, memory support, and our skilled nursing center (including respite and rehabilitation care) reflect the diverse and eclectic population of our well-known university town, which is home to the University of Colorado. Frasier is affiliated with the Mountain Sky United Methodist Conference (formerly the Rocky Mountain Conference of the United Methodist Church) on twenty acres of land donated by Mr. Elmer Frasier. Since then, 300 apartments, 38 assisted living apartments, a 54-bed skilled nursing facility, multiple dining venues, and an award-winning wellness center comprise Frasier. As a not-for-profit organization founded upon the principle of service, Frasier endeavors to provide tangible benefits both to our residents and to the greater Boulder community. While these social accountability efforts focus on caring for seniors, we are proud of our partnerships with diverse organizations that work to improve the community in areas such as health, wellness, service, and leadership.

Building community looks different for everyone — and today, it looks like a friendly game of pool.

Our Chaplain is creating intentional space for bereaved individuals, especially men, to connect, build trust, and feel supported by meeting them in spaces where they already feel most comfortable.

And let's just say, she's also a serious contender at the pool table!

Every quarter, we celebrate team members who reach service milestones in five-year increments—and our February staff meeting gave us plenty to cheer about! We recognized team members for their time at Frasier, ranging from 5 to an incredible 20 years of service. Each milestone was celebrated with well-earned recognition and awards reflecting their years of dedication.

The real story behind those numbers? Commitment, compassion, and a genuine love for the work they do every day. These team members help create the warm, person-centered community that makes Frasier so special.

Faces of Frasier: Team Member edition! Meet Omid, our Transportation Supervisor! He began at Frasier as a part-time driver in 2017 and is now known by residents and team members alike as the first to lend a helping hand. His talents stretch far beyond Frasier, from running a limousine service to operating an online Persian bakery to flying small engine planes.

A quick Q&A with Omid:
Q: If you could master any skill instantly, what would you choose?
A: Definitely to fly a commercial airplane. Or, I’d love to go back to college and study business. My kids are pushing me also. They say, Dad, you need to go back!

Q: If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
A: A burger, as in American-style food, but for Persian food, ghormeh sabzi. Ghormeh sabzi is made with either lamb or beef and then different kinds of herbs. That’s my favorite food forever. I have it like twice a week, and I never get tired of it.

Q: What is your favorite Frasier memory?
A: It was the 100th birthday for one of our residents in the HillTop. It was a wonderful birthday, I will never forget. They had everything special ordered with 100's on it. On candies, on the balloons, on the napkins. She lived to be 104, she was so sweet. I have a picture with her, I never want to lose that picture.

We’re honored to spotlight Omi and the warmth and creativity he brings to Frasier every day. See you next time!

In February, Frasier honored Black History Month in ways both meaningful and memorable.

A true highlight was a special performance by the world-renowned Jeremy Winston Chorale International—a generous gift from a longtime resident to the Frasier community. This internationally acclaimed, award-winning ensemble is celebrated for its artistic excellence and its commitment to cultural connection through music. Their performance was nothing short of inspiring.

We closed the month with “Resisting Erasure: Black Presence in White Spaces,” a powerful panel discussion featuring Terrance Carrol, Junie Joseph, Pedro Silva, and Wanda James. The evening also included music and entertainment from Nana Boakye and concluded with stirring spirituals by Taishya Adams.

From world-class music to thoughtful dialogue, February was a time to reflect, learn, and celebrate the enduring contributions and leadership of Black Americans, past, present, and future.

We loved having My Nature Lab visit The Meadows! Maggie, our expert “snake wrangler,” brought snakes, lizards, tortoises — even an iguana. Many residents (and staff!) held these amazing animals for the first time ever.

An important water line relocation project will get underway, which serves Frasier and portions of the Frasier Meadows neighborhood.

This multi-month project, beginning March 2 and anticipated to conclude in June 2026, will install a new, larger water main beneath Pawnee Drive, replacing the older line under Ponca Place. Swinerton Construction is leading the work. This improved infrastructure represents a necessary and long-term investment in the Frasier Meadows neighborhood along with our community and is required by the City of Boulder.

Project Timeline (Estimated):
• Primary Utility Work: March through mid-May 2026
• Tree Removal at Frasier’s entrance on Ponca Place: mid-April 2026
• Project Completion: late June 2026

What to Expect
• Work will be Monday-Friday, 8am-3:30pm
• Traffic control measures and periodic lane closures or detours on Ponca Place and Pawnee Drive.
• Construction noise, equipment, and excavation activity during work hours.
• Brief, scheduled water service interruptions when connections are switched to the new line (advance notice will be provided to those impacted).

Updated traffic maps and ongoing project details will be posted at

Big congratulations to Michael Maurer from our IT team! Michael has been promoted to Senior Network Administrator and recently earned his Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) credential, widely considered the gold standard in cybersecurity.

The CISSP requires passing a rigorous exam covering eight security domains and recognizes expertise in both the technical and managerial sides of information security. Fewer than 1–2% of IT professionals in the U.S. and worldwide hold this distinction, an outstanding career achievement!

Since joining Frasier in March 2019, Michael has been an integral part of our IT team, keeping our systems secure and running smoothly while helping countless residents and team members navigate IT challenges.

Faces of Frasier: Resident Edition! Meet Juan, a resident who has spent his life at the intersection of science, music, and global diplomacy. As a former director of a major geophysical institute, he has seen firsthand how research and education shape our world. He continues to ask big questions, both in science as he continues his research, and about how to make communities like ours better for people living with vision loss.

Quick Q&A with Juan:
Q: If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you pick?
A: Argentinian barbeque. It’s different than the way of doing it here, and it takes a lot of time to cook. For food, I am spoiled from places like Argentina, Italy, and Austria.

Q: What is something your grandparents or elders taught you that you still remember?
A: The father of my mother acted as the model for me, he was not a scientist, but he was an engineer. He was director of the electrical power plant in Italy where we lived at the beginning of my life. Looking back, he was what probably put me on the track of science.

Q: If you could master any skill instantly, what would you pick?
A: I’m missing playing the organ. But, I have given talks [at the church] across the street on the organ as an instrument, on music perception, and so on. I used to play across the street, they have one of the biggest organs in Boulder.

We are grateful he continues to share his global perspective, scientific insight, and lived experience with the Frasier community. See you next time!
