Yet the couple sees each other every day thanks to frequent visits and the property’s robust resident programming, which includes everything from art classes to Friday night happy hours. Read the full story to learn other ways Pathway helps couples stay together as they age together.

Lola and Walter Bohnen have been married for 55 years and are able to remain together as a couple at Aspired Living of Prospect Heights, an independent living, assisted living and memory care community owned and operated by Pathway to Living.
