Deanna: “If I’m here, it’s for the long haul.”
Deanna chose Tillsonburg Retirement after observing the respectful and compassionate way staff treated residents. That sense of dignity and kindness reassured her that this was the right place for the long term. As she lovingly says, if she is there, it is for the long haul. The welcoming community of Tillsonburg, with its small-town connection and familiar surroundings, also helped her feel at home.
Lillian: “The old Lillian is back.”
Lillian’s connection to Tillsonburg Retirement began long before she moved in. Her family is from Tillsonburg, and her mother once lived there, forming meaningful friendships within the home. When the time came to consider retirement living, the familiarity of the community and its people made the decision feel natural.

My transition was wonderful and there were no surprises along the way. I truly enjoy the people here and I love having my meals prepared for me every day.
The people here make the difference in my day-to-day life. Having conversations and laughing together gives me a real boost of positivity, and I would definitely recommend our home to others.
Deanna
This is a great place to be because it’s not a large building and therefore it is easy to get to know people. The staff here are truly spectacular.
The friendships I have with other residents and the activities we do together are my favorite part of living here. I would definitely recommend our retirement home to others.
