St. John's United - The Crossings

Our beloved mother, Teresa, was born in Ireland and emigrated to Missoula in her twenties, where she lived for nearly 70 years. Nine years ago, she moved into Grizzly Peak, an independent living facility in Missoula, and she absolutely loved the community. In March 2024, she fell and broke her shoulder. Due to her increasing memory loss and need for medical care, we transferred her to a memory care facility in Missoula. Unfortunately, we had a very negative experience there. Our niece Kara insisted on transferring mom to the Richardson Cottage at the Crossings Campus in Laurel, MT, a St. John's United community, where she had worked in high school. We transferred mom at the end of August 2024, and it was a blessing. The community embraced our mother, and we felt welcomed with open arms. M

Our mother and late father moved into the crossings 13 years ago and it's been such a blessing for both them and their children. It's so comforting knowing our mother is safe, comfortable, well nourished meals, great socialization and is very well cared for by the staff. My mother who is now 91, still has the benefit of cooking family meals and baking from her apartment which she loves. There is always entertainment going on, field trips to take, trips to Walmart and shopping, and usually a relaxing card game in the evening. It just seems the Crossings staff go out of their way to making their residents happy and secure. I would recommend the Crossings to anyone. .

We feel we know all about the Crossings when the people are mentioned at devotions and the memorial services at Chapel Court.

We enjoyed their special events and had a wonderful time at last years Valentines Day dinner.

They cared for my grandmother for 5 years and treated her as if she were family
