Life Here is Better!

Just ask anyone who lives here . . .

“A retirement home is a place to enjoy life at its fullest.  This is our home where we live without the worries of running a house.  If we want to be alone, we can just remain at home and let the world go by.  But there are opportunities to associate with wonderful people – including going to concerts or plays with transportation provided.”

“Most people wait too long before moving into a retirement home.  They should move in while they are active and can participate in activities and sports.”

“It’s great to give up the worries and tribulations of keeping a house.  If something is needed in this home, we just call maintenance and they come to our aid immediately!”

“It’s reported that people live longer when they are involved with others.  The associations we make here are invaluable and I am sure that they not only prolong our lives, but make them more enjoyable.”

“The biggest joy in community living is the fellowship and camaraderie of sharing meals, recreational space and even elevator rides with other residents.”

“I have the pleasure of living just minutes from downtown with all the amenities Columbia has to offer – churches of all denominations, concert halls, the art museum, Riverbanks Zoo, malls, historic homes, beautiful parks, good medical care and the list goes on and on.”

“The food is excellent – prepared and displayed attractively with dishes done for us when the meal is over – how’s that for a plus?!  The grass is cut, the bushes trimmed and the leaves raked in the fall.  Just as important, there are no property taxes, only renter’s insurance, and regular maintenance for all appliances is provided.” 

“I look forward to busy days filled with pleasant and worthwhile activities, to expanding my horizons through reading and developing new hobbies.  We are never too old to learn, to love and enjoy fruitful lives enhanced by others.”
