🎥✨ And the Oscar goes to… OUR RESIDENTS! We rolled out the red carpet for a night of glam, awards, and unforgettable moments. From star-worthy dining to our own epic award show, the vibes were immaculate! 🌟🏆 Residents slayed, posed for our paparazzi 📸, and took home well-deserved ...wins.

Safe to say… we’re already planning next year’s! 🎬🍿 #Oscars2025

Shirley’s latest work is a masterclass in color harmony and subtle gradients. 🎨✨ Using a blend of soft blues and greens, she crafted a composition that evokes both tranquility and movement—proof that simplicity can be just as powerful as complexity. With delicate spray and brush ...techniques, she transformed an upcycled frame into a striking study of modern minimalism.
Art is ageless, and creativity knows no bounds. Bravo, Shirley! 👏

This Valentine’s season, one of our Directors of Entertainment & Programming, Jim, delivered Singing Love-O-Grams in style! 🎤✨
Dressed to impress in a bold red tux, he’s surprising residents and team members with serenades, roses, and sweet treats. 🌹🍫
But these ...performances aren’t just about love—they’re about giving back.

💜 Every Love-O-Gram supports the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, helping us take a stand against this disease while spreading joy.

At Spectrum Retirement, we cherish the incredible bonds between our team and residents—because here, we’re more than a community, we’re family. ❤️

During the Valentine’s Mixology Social, Chloe, an amazing Programming Coordinator at Cedar Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care ...& Greg, the Director of Entertainment and Programming, shared a truly heartfelt moment. Chloe introduced a beautiful Neil Young song—her parents’ wedding song—then performed a stunning live rendition that touched every heart in the room. 💕

These moments of joy, connection, and shared stories are what make life at Cedar Lake so special. Love isn’t just a holiday—it’s something we celebrate every day. 💞

Press play for a bouquet you can actually eat! 🌹🧀 Our residents got crafty with charcuterie, turning salami and cheese into edible art. Who needs flowers when you have this? #valentinesdaysnacks

Smiles, laughter, and new friendships! 💛 This weekend, our community welcomed families from East Lake Academy for an afternoon of bingo and balloon volleyball. These precious moments remind us why we cherish intergenerational activities so much.

Aging is an art, and we’re all masters of it! 🎉🌟 Here’s to another year of redefining what it means to live fully—young at heart, bright in spirit, and glowing into 2025! 💫 #SpectrumRetirement #YoungAtHeart #NewYearNewAdventures

Last weekend, we transformed our community into a festive Candy Cane Lane wonderland! 🌟 From our cozy gift shop and wrapping station to a heartwarming reading room with Mrs. Claus and a Santa’s mailbox for the little ones, the holiday cheer was unforgettable. ❤️

At Homestead at ...Hickoryview, we’re more than a senior living community—we’re a place where neighbors become family and memories are made. 🌟

🎁 Ready to join a close-knit, vibrant community? Come visit us and see why life here feels like home!

When creativity strikes, the results glow! 💡🎄 Our Winter Wreath Creation class had residents rolling, twisting, and lighting up the season—literally! With deco mesh, wireframes, and fairy lights, they crafted glowing masterpieces that brighten our hallways. Activities like this keep minds ...sharp, hands busy, and hearts full of cheer.

This Thanksgiving, our hearts are full of gratitude for family—and the warm hugs that remind us what home truly feels like.

Hear From Residents and Family of Burr Ridge Senior Living Community!

I visited this place and many more for my mother. I actually came back another time with my husband just to see again. Donna Stinson could not have been more helpful in making this decision easier where to have my mother live. It takes on a whole other aspect for the best place to live and to feel comfortable that my mother is safe.I thank Donna so much. She knew everything that was part of my concerns on a place to live for my mother. My mom has been here for almost 2 months and is very happy.

I had only been able to stop in for information and we didn't even get a chance to tour before Covid and the stay-at-home orders hit. John was able to provide us video of the actual apartments that were available and answer all of our questions to work us through the process so that when move-ins were allowed again, we were ready to go. It's stressful enough moving a loved one, let alone in these circumstances but we were very confident of our choice after talking with John. Even though we had a couple of bumps with our movers, John and his team went above and beyond to help get my mother-in-law moved in on time and safely under the Covid guidelines. We wish we could have seen her face when she walked in the apartment but talking to her the next morning we knew we made the right choice and she was happy. If anyone else is facing a decision about moving their relative to Burr Senior Living or about doing it during this time of Covid, I would not hesitate to tell you to do it because John and the rest of the team are wonderful!
