“We enjoyed living at redwood. It was convenient for us since we were older and needed everything on 1 floor. We always received good care from the maintenance guys. They would even help my husband shovel snow if they saw him out cause they knew he was unstable on his feet. We would still be there but my husband passed and I moved in with my daughter.”
