Today was a special day at our community! Our residents got to see Kevin's brand new accessible van, a well-deserved upgrade that's going to make a huge difference in his life.

Seeing the joy on Kevin and everyone else's face as he showed off the van was such a beautiful moment. Our residents were so supportive, excited, and proud of him. It's heartwarming to witness how strong and uplifting this community truly is.

This week in our Ageless Spirit, we explored the powerful theme of unconditional love, led by two of our deeply admired residents, Jan and Lee.

Their wisdom sparked a meaningful conversation among the group, and left us all reflecting on the depth and resilience that real love requires. Thank you, Jan and Lee, for guiding such a heartfelt discussion and reminding us what it truly means to grow in love-at every stage in life. ♥️
