COMMENTS from residents

"LIFE AT PARKER RIDGE: Small enough to give me a feeling of family. Large enough to provide me with my own space. It simply does not get better than that! When to make the move to a retirement community? For every individual or couple there is a right time to make that move, but to recognize and accept it often is anything, but easy. Each case is unique, with many different factors shaping the decision. There is, however, one general rule which, though flexible, if accepted and followed, has in most cases proved valid, and it is this: Make your move earlier rather than later! We feel that we made the right decision. The cares of home-ownership were lifted from our shoulders. The financial uncertainties of home-ownership were left behind us, and instead we had the predictable monthly maintenance fee, which we could budget for, factoring in the certain yearly increases for rising cost of operation. Best of all, we found ourselves among congenial and friendly fellow members and engaged in new activities. It was like starting a new life, and we thoroughly enjoyed it." "
