the JULY 2015 newsletter THE HERITAGE TRADITION | ASSISTED LIVING | a Senior Lifestyle community | SUN CITY WEST, AZ 85375 | 623-742-1001 JOIN US THIS MONTH FOR IT’S OUR PLEASURE TO SERVE YOU ... america the beautiful word from your executive director As I spent some time thinking about our community, I was impressed with several things that make it very special: “AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL” IS AN AMERICAN PATRIOTIC SONG. Late afternoon on the Arkansas River in Canon City, Colo. The lyrics were written by Katharine Lee Bates and the music was composed by church organist and choirmaster Samuel A. Ward. Have you ever thought about the words to this beautiful song? “O beautiful for spacious skies, amber waves of grain, purple mountains majesty, fruited plains and alabaster cities, from sea to shining sea”? Or how about the lyrics from “This Land Is Your Land” — “redwood forests to the gulf stream waters, sparkling sands, wheat fields waving”? During the month of July we will celebrate the patriotism and beauty that is America. THIS MONTH’S silver star MAYBE NOT SILVER, BUT DEFINITELY SHINING Ready, Set, Deal! This month’s Silver Star is not a resident of the Legacy but he is a life-long member of the Legacy family. Don Anderson and his wife, Gretchen, moved to Sun City West to take care of his mother, Marge Anderson, who was a resident at the Legacy. Don and Gretchen were highly involved in the life of the Legacy and made many friends among it’s residents and staff. Don, along with the help of his wife, took over the dealing of the blackjack and poker games. Needless to say, he was one of the most popular people to walk in the door on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We lost Gretchen to cancer in August of 2013 and Marge went to her celestial home a few months later. Don took a few months off from card dealing, but has since returned to deal blackjack on Tuesday afternoons. When we needed a new game table, Don donated a custom made one in honor of his beautiful Gretchen. The residents love him and enjoy having him as part of their family. Don truly is a “shining star” at the Legacy. • A quality staff that loves serving our residents every day and making sure that their needs are met. • A food service department that delivers some of the finest meals available in any senior community. The variety and quality of our menus have been recognized in our community and by our corporate staff as being among the finest in the company. • A beautiful community that is elegant, yet not overstated. Our residents are comfortable in their surroundings.

GARY SPRAGUE, ARIZONA’S SINGING COWBOY, AND HIS HORSE, DUSTY. The weather was threatening rain and wind so we moved the program indoors. But not to fear, Gary and Dusty will perform nearly anywhere. Luckily our lobby has really high ceilings so Gary can sit astride Dusty and still have “Are you sure it’s okay?” room for his hat. All the residents and staff enjoyed the program and each was treated to an opportunity to be up close and personal with Dusty. As Gary has told me on many occasions, “They don’t come to see or hear me; they come to see Dusty.” IT’S OUR PLEASURE TO SERVE YOU ... word from your executive director (continued) • Our company, Senior Lifestyle Corporation, is a 29-year-old, privately-held, family-owned company.

Sounds cozy! • The Heritage Legacy, our assisted living community, is recognized not only for its incredible beauty, but even more so for the professional care we provide.
