Behind every smile at Port Credit Residences<\/a> is a story worth celebrating, every resident brings their own story and Iris is no exception. Since the age of three, Iris has been in show business. \u201cI danced in shows and during the war I danced supporting the troops in England,\u201d<\/em> she shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, living colourfully means many things to her. \u201cTrying new things, connecting with others, and of course making new friends.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When choosing Port Credit Residences, one thing stood out right away: \u201cI really enjoyed the pleasant staff at the residence.\u201d<\/em> Since moving in, she has also been happily surprised by \u201cthe amazing entertainment that perform at the residence.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Staying active is important, and she makes time for \u201cthe daily and weekly exercise programs.\u201d<\/em> She also takes pride in her home at Port Credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iris has carried that same spirit of resilience and connection with her throughout her 90 years. At Port Credit, she continues to enjoy the entertainment, the exercise programs, and the friendships that make each day meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking back on 90 years, Iris shares the wisdom her father gave her: \u201cTo be a givable person and life will pay you back. I have lived 90 years thus far and it\u2019s been a good life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
