Samenvatting:

A touching tale about being human in the golden years. Back in her late twenties or early thirties, Doris Johnson had an elaborate vision of a model retirement community that included shops and businesses and a large central courtyard. Now in her seventies, Doris has simplified her vision and added the warmth, interaction, and activities of the residents who live there. The community now resides in an old governor's mansion, which provides the perfect genteel setting for this retirement ''family.'' This heartwarming story follows the residents through their first year in The Mansion, revealing their quirks, sorrows, joys, and, most of all, caring.
