Touching Lives
They have traveled to several places but always return to their hometown of Decatur.
After some illnesses and a fall at home, they decided to take a look at Eagle Ridge.
They were worried they wouldn’t be able to afford to live in a community like ours, but we assured them that wasn’t the case.
Within a week of touring Eagle Ridge, they moved into their apartment.
During his time in the South Pacific, he traveled around 6 different islands. While on tour, he was in the Philippines when the bomb was dropped. After two and a half years in the Navy, he returned home.
While back home, he worked as a farmer alongside his father. Still trying to adjust to life back home, he headed to Mt. Pulaski where he served as a farmhand. Meeting his wife Mary in the small town, they married in 1951. They enjoyed their life in Mt. Pulaski for 7 years before relocating.
Often seen with her bowling team on Tuesday mornings, Myra was inducted to the Decatur Bowling Hall of Fame in 2004. With a love for bowling, Myra’s journey began in 1965, throwing nothing but strikes. She enjoys socializing with her friends and being competitive.
In her free time, she enjoys reading, dancing, collecting dragonware china and watching sports. She is a lifelong fan of the Chicago Bears, Chicago Cubs, and the Celtics; Anthony Rizzo holds the top ranking for most favorite.
He served in the Marines and coached the tennis team at Millikin University. Once he retired, he served up the famous winery burgers at the local waterhole on Millikin’s campus.
As you can see, Mac has always been doing something that helps other or brings them joy.
So, it was only right that he would do the same when he moved to Eagle Ridge after suffering a stroke last March.
They looked at other facilities – and even lived in one for a month. It was then that they decided to look at Eagle Ridge, and Barb said it felt like home the moment they walked into the door.
It’s the people that make our community so special. All of the residents are extremely friendly, the Sevits said, and the staff goes out of their way to be caring and compassionate.
“There is no place else we’d want to live,” Barb says.
