PARKER, Colo., April 6, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Pine Grove Crossing, an assisted living and memory care community in Parker, Colorado, invites the public to attend "Wisdom on Wheels," a special storytelling event featuring Jack York, Chief Storyteller & Aging Services Visionary, on Thursday, April 16 at 4 p.m. at the community, located at 19160 Cottonwood Drive, Parker, CO 80138. Open to all, this engaging event offers local seniors, adult children, and caregivers a meaningful opportunity to gain insight into aging with purpose while experiencing the vibrant lifestyle and supportive environment at Pine Grove Crossing.

As part of the event, attendees will hear insights from Pine Grove Crossing resident Virginia Vandenberg, who will turn 102 this August, drawn from a recent interview conducted by York. Her reflections on a life rich in experience, resilience, and perspective offer a rare opportunity to hear directly from a centenarian about what matters most, what changes with age, and what continues to bring meaning and joy. A Colorado local based in nearby Castle Rock, just 30 minutes from Parker, York brings both a national perspective and a personal connection to the community as he shares stories from older adults across the country.

For seven years, York has traveled the country interviewing thousands of senior living residents and gathering lessons on purpose, connection, and aging well. During the Pine Grove Crossing event, attendees will hear stories and insights centered on joy, resilience, choice, and community. According to the event flyer, guests will hear what people wish they had done sooner, discover what keeps life engaging and meaningful, learn what many people stop worrying about as they age, recognize what becomes easier when life is shared, and gain clarity on what truly matters next.

"This event is a wonderful opportunity for families to experience the warmth, wisdom, and connection that make our community so special," said Kim Backes, Executive Director. "We are proud to create meaningful experiences for our residents while opening our doors to local families who are exploring senior living options for a loved one."

The community also features Montessori Moments in Time™, Meridian Senior Living's exclusive memory care programming, designed to bring purpose and success-oriented engagement to residents living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.
