Q: How long have you lived here?
A: Over four years. Four years.
Q: What made you decide to move to Courtyard Estates?
A: Kathy, my daughter-in-law, had six places lined up for me to see. And my wife had died, and we lived in Vincennes. She wanted to move over there. We lived at Mount Vernon, and she wanted to move over there because her only son lived over there, my second marriage, and had two three grandkids. Well, we only lived there about eight months, she died. So, I came back up here, and this is the first place I looked at. I had an apartment by the elevator, and it was really a good place. So, I took it without looking at the other places and I've been really happy here.
Q: What do you like about being here?
A: Well, I like my apartment, and I like the fact that I don't have to eat alone. And I like the fact that I don't have to go eat by myself and go out and eat by myself.
