The Fitness Center Will Miss the Pirtles

Leisure World Dance performances five times.

At 91- and 87-years young, Robert and Jennifer Pirtle still work out daily in the Fitness Center. They support each other during their workouts and smile the whole time. We love that the fitness center is part of their lifestyle.

This month Robert and Jennifer have chosen to move to Timber Ridge, a senior citizen living facility in Seattle. Once Jennifer’s son Geoffrey, a French Horn soloist, retires from Bonn Symphony in Germany; he will keep 1414 Leisure World in the family and join the Leisure World Community.
