“I love working for the Morse Family. They truly are an American dream and they are beyond selfless. They care about this wonderful place and have worked very hard for it. They take amazing care of their employees. The vision they have for the residents allows them to have the time of their life to really create their retirement dream! I hope to retire and enjoy this amazing place one day with all of you.”   This place keeps you young!!
