OAK CREST DeKalb Area Retirement Center www.oakcrestdekalb.org

“I did it my way…”

You know that old Sinatra song, the one where Frank croons, “I did it my way?”

Well, when it came time for me to think about the future I knew for certain I wanted to remain in the DeKalb community, in a place I know and love, surrounded by Marguerite Key good friends. I also knew that I didn’t want to rely on others to make my decisions and wanted to have the ability to choose not only where I live but how I live. I was so impressed when I visited Oak Crest and saw the many and varied options.

I was even more surprised to learn that I could customize my new apartment home to fit my lifestyle. When people stop by for a visit they always comment on the lovely surroundings, the wonderful staff and how my home really is a reflection of me. If you’re anything like me, when it comes to making those big life decisions you’ll want to do it your way too. Come for a visit and discover all that Oak Crest has to offer.

Marguerite Key, Resident since 2012
