CAREFREE – There’s cause for celebration at the Heritage at Carefree. Eleanore Abramson is going to be 100 in May! She’s been at the Heritage almost a year. She loves it. “It’s elegant,” she said. “The furnishings are my style. Look at the tapestries and art. They have the finest decorations. The people are lovely.”

Originally from New Jersey, Abramson has been in Arizona for 12 years. Her family looked at several retirement homes before deciding on the Heritage. “My daughter knew I would love it,” Abramson explained. “I don’t think I could live in a place without the ambiance.”

What she appreciates is the wonderful chef. The fact the Heritage is beautifully kept and always clean. She likes that she can furnish her room to her tastes. “They (owners Donna Holbura and her family) give you everything you want,” Abramson assured.

While there are lots of activities at the Heritage at Carefree Retirement Living, including movies and chauffeured ventures into town for shopping or lunch, Abramson enjoys her own company and is an avid reader. Another plus to the Heritage: residents do what they want to make it home. She’s especially grateful for Arizona’s climate and the fact there’s such a spacious courtyard. “It’s really special when the hummingbirds visit,” Abramson, who has a view of the enclosed yard from her room, added.
