\u201c[Social connection] improves mental and physical health; it provides companionship, and that brings happiness and laughter,\u201d Singer said.<\/p>\n
Creating connection through everyday interaction<\/p>\n
At Twin Rivers at Collin Creek, residents encourage one another, attend events, build friendships and create routines that help them stay involved.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s dancing, there\u2019s laughing and there\u2019s food,\u201d Singer said. \u201cThere is a sense of belonging and purpose here.\u201d<\/p>\n
The community recently celebrated Cinco de Mayo, and they also hosted a large open house event that welcomed more than 150 attendees. Monthly birthday celebrations are especially meaningful, as staff members celebrate each resident with songs, gifts and their favorite cakes to create moments that feel personal and family-oriented.<\/p>\n
The community also recently celebrated longtime residents Linda and Eddie Come, who marked their 60th wedding anniversary on May 21.![\"Linda](\"https:\/\/communityimpact.com\/uploads\/images\/2026\/05\/21\/425472.png\")
Linda and Eddie ComeLeaving behind the stress of living alone<\/p>\n
Many residents arrive after years of managing home maintenance and the challenges that come with living independently. Moving into a senior living community relieves the burden of lawn care and household upkeep. Additionally, residents gain a built-in support system. Instead of searching for social opportunities outside the home, companionship is already around them each day.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey now have friends, who they call family,\u201d Singer said.<\/p>\n
Residents often say they wish they had made the move sooner, and they express feeling safer and more supported after moving in.<\/p>\n
Challenging misconceptions about senior living<\/p>\n
Singer said one common misconception is that senior living residents are fragile or inactive. In reality, she sees residents who continue bowling into their 90s, participate in activities regularly and maintain strong independence.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe residents are strong, independent movers and shakers,\u201d Singer said.<\/p>\n
She believes staying involved plays a major role in helping residents maintain that energy and outlook.<\/p>\n
