It has been nine years since I moved to The Heritage – years filled with friends and fun. I do not have to worry about the problems of owning a home, as in the need for a new roof or mowing the lawn. I do not have to plan meals or cook. The days go quickly with many activities, and my family does not have to worry about me. Anna E.
