Season鈥檚 greetings to everyone from !
The holidays are a joyful, yet sensitive, time for many of our residents. In later life, the holiday season is a mix of emotions. We have lost so many dear friends, family and loved ones, but we still celebrate the present by connecting and sharing kind words with each other 鈥� all while reflecting on joyful memories in our minds.
At VRS, we appreciate this delicate balance of emotions; and it鈥檚 a particular joy to see our residents, who have developed so many new friendships within our communities know that they are not alone. Not only do they have each other, but they also have our supportive team to enjoy seasonal activities with!
Here are some quotes from the residents at Lakeside Gardens, a sister location of and one of 11 VRS Seniors Communities:
鈥淭he staff here at VRS are wonderful! I told my family that I am staying here for Christmas. They weren鈥檛 happy with me, but I said they can come visit me here.鈥� 鈥� Betty
鈥淲hen I walked in the front doors at VRS, I liked it right away. It had a warm and inviting feeling. This year, VRS is decorated amazingly! And all the activities planned make things brighter and happier for everyone. Since moving here, I feel relaxed 鈥� I am no longer stressed!鈥� 鈥� Sheila
鈥淚 am looking forward to having Christmas here. I will miss the kids decorating my home, but it feels like Christmas to me here.鈥� 鈥� Tove
鈥淚 don鈥檛 have to worry about Christmas shopping, baking, and all the preparation I did as a housewife 鈥� although I did love doing all that. Now I can sit back and enjoy it here at VRS. I have more friends than I did before!鈥� 鈥� Inge
鈥淚 am comfortable staying here for Christmas; it鈥檚 a chosen family! I enjoy the music we have during the holiday season and the staff are excellent.鈥� 鈥� Eileen
