“
I realized I was having some health issues and could no longer maintain my home. After discussing it with my son and his wife, we decided it was time for me to move into a retirement home.
When I came here, I spent about an hour and fifteen minutes, and I was really impressed. After that, I visited a few other homes, but I said it wasn’t necessary — I had already made up my mind because I was so impressed by Lifetimes.
I’m very happy here, and I tell everyone — come here and enjoy your life! It’s completely stress-free and full of happiness.

I was born in Windsor and raised here. Growing older, I no longer wanted to live alone. “I have been here since 2016. I am happy with my decision. YES! I definitely recommend everyone.
