Why Some Have Chosen St. Gerard's

Hear from our residents about their experiences at St. Gerard’s Community of Care and what makes our community feel like home.

“We came here mainly because there is Mass every day and a priest living right here to talk to, if we feel the need. I love it here! Another thing we love about living where we do is the view from our window. We wake up in the morning and are greeted with a garden of beautiful roses right outside our window. I know there is someone here, if we have trouble.”

“I came here because I am not a cook! When my wife died, I lived in our home for three months before knowing that I needed to go someplace where someone will cook for me.”

“I like having Mass daily without having to go outside. I also like to be able to visit daily with my friends.”
