Personal Commentary
I should like to say to my personal friends and colleagues that I came to the Westmont Retirement Community by choice. My son suggested it was time to consider choosing such a place while I could make my own choice, lest he have to make it for me, which I wouldn't like. So we investigated the retirement homes in the San Jose area and of them all, I chose the Westmont which lives up to its name‑"a community for gracious living."
The Westmont has several desirable features‑‑there is no "buy in"‑‑only an initial deposit and the monthly rent for board and lodging. It is a most pleasant place‑‑the ambience is for me always good. I recommend it highly.
