Creston Village Assisted Living & Memory Care

At the end of the 76th Wedding Anniversary celebration today, Don and Helen sang I'll Never Find Another You for their guest's and fellow residents. A perfect finale for a musical journey performed and sung along by friends and family.

The card drive goal of 76 cards, marking as many years of marriage, was surpassed at 96.

Congratulations Don & Helen! We'll do it again next year!

Tonight's Friends & Family Christmas Dinner was over the top, with prime rib, glazed ham, fingerling roasted potatoes, English vegetables and red velvet cake and peppermint cheesecake.

The meal was accompanied by flutist Maria Apostles in Memory Care and Brynn Albanese in Assisted Living.

We were so fortunate to have wonderful volunteers from both Templeton and Paso Robles high schools working side by side with our staff to pull together an amazing event for all to enjoy.

See ya next year!

Don says the secret to a long marriage is simple: “Pick right in the first place.” Helen says, “respect goes a long way.” ❤️ After 76 years, they’ve clearly figured something out.

💌 Can You Send a Card?

Don and Helen first noticed each other while singing in a church choir back in 1946. A little time passed, a few glances turned into conversations, and soon they found themselves on a dance floor — the place they say their story truly began.

All these years later, they’re still dancing through life together as they prepare to celebrate 76 years of marriage on December 28 at Creston Village.

We’re hoping to collect 76 anniversary cards for their special day. If you’d like to send a note, here’s where to mail it:

Don & Helen
Attn: Julie Tacker, Director of Engagement

Your card will make their day.

Where’s the best place to live during retirement?

Choosing based only on monthly payment can lead to regret. Hidden costs, upkeep, and lifestyle impacts often show up later.

A condo vs. a senior apartment isn’t just about equity—it’s about repairs, travel flexibility, and daily responsibilities.

Read our latest blog for 2025 costs, practical insights, and the questions to ask before deciding.

Shortly after I started at Creston Village in 2023, we decided to enter our van in the Paso Robles parade. Having never been, I wasn't sure what I was in for: but it turns out that when it comes to Christmas parades, Paso does not mess around.

I learned this for the third year in a row last night when a band of Creston Villagers and I set sail and drove a group of residents in the parade.

The lights, the music and the crowd were a total blast. But moreso than all of the excitement outside the van was the excitment INSIDE the van. Pam, one of our residents, had to switch sides of the vehicle mid-way through the parade because her arm was sore from all the waving! We all got home (way past bedtime) feeling like celebrities.

Truly a great evening.

Also, the fact that I got to meet Santa himself (he was the real deal - no idea how Paso has that kind of budget, but there he was!) was the cherry on top. He reports that anybody reading this message is by default not on the naughty list.

Have a Merry December, all!
