At The Gary Residence, you’ll find a welcoming, congenial atmosphere from the moment you arrive.
In addition to catching up with friends over dinner, you’ll find there’s always a bridge partner nearby, or someone ready to accept your challenge to a game of Scrabble. Individuals with similar interests in music, reading, or current events naturally gravitate to each other, forming groups to share their thoughts on a regular basis. Our small size allows our residents to feel like family, and they receive the support they need to continue living a productive and meaningful life.
