People Say

“Having my mom move to Memory Lane was one of the best decisions I ever made. The facility is beautiful and all the residents have their own small apartment.

The staff from the CNAs, nurses and administrators are terrific and Mom was always well taken care of and loved.

There were many great activities throughout the week, ladies in her area for conversations and laughter, and plenty of time for her to sit outside and watch the birds.

She had a beautiful end to her life, full of people who loved and cared for her and for that I will always be extremely grateful. My only complaint is that my mom didn’t move to Memory Lane sooner.”
