"It's wonderful to be surrounded by friends." Let's Talk Books "I was lonely at home; I missed laughter. My move to The Park at Trowbridge was a wonderful experience. The entire community is warm and gracious, and I was welcomed like royalty. I like everything about The Park at Trowbridge — the wonderful staff, food, transportation, entertainment, friends and neighbors. And now I can choose to be by myself or surrounded by friends. I've never had it so good."
