Our Story
GRACEWOOD Senior Living was founded from the heart, inspired by a daughter’s love.
Being far away meant that time with her parents was limited, yet every visit was deeply cherished. When her parents were taken too soon, far too early, she carried a profound wish for additional shared meals, more milestones celebrated, and more moments that truly mattered.
Out of that grief and love came a clear purpose: to create a home for seniors where compassion and support while maintaining independence are woven into everyday life. That is how Gracewood was born. This mission lives in everything Gracewood stands for: treating every resident like family, making every meal feel like home, and guiding daily life with gentleness, respect and unconditional love.
The Gracewood home itself holds special meaning. It is a spacious residential assisted living home with 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, thoughtfully designed and built as a family home so the founder and her family could remain close to their aging parents, sharing daily life, unhurried time together, and the gift of their wisdom and presence. For a season, that purpose was fulfilled beautifully.
Today, Gracewood opens its doors to continue the same mission for other seniors and families not seeking a facility, but a true home. A place where each resident is known by name, treated with dignity, and cared for as family, with 24-hour care from CNA-certified caregivers and a 4:1 resident-to-caregiver ratio.
