I am greeted by Suzy on warm summer day from the porch of a home she has lived in for many years. This porch reflects her personality with flowerpots, metal sculptures, wind chimes and a hot tub. She loves to sit here for breaks during her stay-at-home workday.  But this space shines best when friends join her in the evenings or on weekends for a meal, a glass of wine or a cup of coffee. Or maybe a dip in the hot tub when the sun goes down. A new chiminea has joined the porch furnishings, which Suzy plans to take to her new home at Heartwood Commons. A sweet little brown dog, named Molly, is her constant companion. Molly greets us with a soft bark and cool pink nose. Although Suzy has been comfortable and content in this generous, older home in the older neighborhood she grew up in, she is the first one to say that it’s not ideal for aging in place. She jumped on the cohousing bandwagon early on and is its staunchest supporter. As a member of the Marketing Team, she is passionate about sharing the many benefits of cohousing with potential members. As a friend, a neighbor and a dedicated cohouser, Suzy will be an asset to our new community.
