Cruising into a Life of Ease at New Community

By Carrie Anne Deters
THE ERICKSON TRIBUNE

Phil and Wanda Roselli are always on the go, whether they’re traveling to visit family or sailing off on an extended cruise. After a quick chat with them, its easy to see they have few intentions of slowing down, but are seeking an easier, more convenient lifestyle.

An Erickson Encounter
Searching the Internet, Wanda came upon the website for Erickson Retirement Communities (www.Erickson.com). Impressed by what she saw, Wanda requested more information and soon began to receive The Erickson Tribune. “Soon after I started receiving the newspaper, I saw that Erickson was planning to build in Overland Park and requested more information right away,” says Wanda.

Heading Home
The Rosellis have lived in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Arizona— a move to the Kansas City area would be a homecoming of sorts. With a sister, brother-in-law, nieces, and nephews in Leawood and Overland Park—a move to Erickson’s newest community, Tallgrass Creek, seems like just the right fit.

Cruise Ship Convenience
Phil and Wanda have cruised all over the world and can’t wait to make Tallgrass Creek their home port. Phil Roselli says, “Tallgrass Creek will be like a cruise ship—everything is just a few steps away—the bank, a Medical Center, the convenience store, a Fitness Center, even the salon—we won’t have to go out for anything if we don’t want to!”

Wanda looks forward to taking advantage of the many amenities at Tallgrass Creek. She says, “I’m excited to have someone else cook dinner each day!”

The full-service, maintenance-free lifestyle at this new community sold Phil. He says, “If the roof leaks at the house or our spa breaks, we hustle around to find someone to fix it— with the advantages of Tallgrass Creek, I’ll just make a phone call and someone I know will be by to take care of it.” Wanda agrees, “That has great appeal!”
