From Associate to Resident

Resident and Associate by community's car.

Frank, a Berwyn, Illinois, native, has found a new haven at The Fountains at Crystal Lake. A self-professed troublemaker, he says it wasn’t until he met his wife that he decided to leave his mischief-making ways behind. Frank has enjoyed a diverse career journey, from managing warehouses to traversing the open road as a truck driver.

In a twist of fate, Frank later took up a part-time role driving the bus at The Fountains. When it was time to choose a senior living community, the decision was easy for him.

He remarked, “Why not? I know everyone … This is home. That's the bottom line. Great people working here. They do a fantastic job. It's not just a job to them, it's more than that.”

Now a resident, Frank can be found regaling fellow residents with jokes over coffee in the dining room or accompanying The Fountain’s driver, Ed, on errands. While his days of mischief-making may be behind him, the mischievous glint in his eyes still shines, endearing him to all who cross his path.

The Fountains community is grateful to have Frank as part of the family, cherishing his vibrant spirit and the wealth of stories he brings to their close-knit community.
