About Bickford Senior Living

We began our quest into senior living because of our love for a beloved family member, Mary Bickford, whose needs became too great for us to manage. After Mary was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Judie and her husband Don Eby decided to create a home for her, inspired by her life of love, service and happiness. Because of her life, we saw the other "Mary's" out there and dedicated our lives to reaching out to them.
