"I will soon be 83 and have lived at Traditions at Salona for one year. My husband died one month after we moved into one of their cottage homes and I am thankful we got settled into our new retirement routine. Salona is definitely the right place for me at this time in my life. Every evening I go over to the dining room for my dinner. There I have formed many wonderful friendships and we all have a lot in common. I am able to keep my dog (my best friend) and walk her every evening -- it is nice to have sidewalks around the building and the view of White River. It is also nice to have everything taken care of and groups and classes of all kinds - Book clubs, Bingo, Exercise classes, outings of every kind and my favorite -- musicians that come in and play the piano or guitar and sing our favorite songs from the past. I also appreciate the guys who mow the grass and trim and treat the landscaping (they are even nice!) I am grateful!!" - Judy…

Our family is impressed with the cleanliness, the friendly staff, the beautiful campus, and the home like environment. We love it! Mom struggled at first, with the idea and process of moving from her home of 60 years, she had shared with my Dad before his death. She had never lived in an apartment on her own.
