Riley House

"Elderly housing nice and clean."

"I have been a resident for five years.. they cater to their tenants right were they are in life. Correspondence between management and tenants is in their own native language and community notices and pertinent information and events are always current . They not only post tenant notices, events both in house and out, in public areas (areas that are visablle to everyone) and they go the extra mile by sliding duplicate copies under each tenant’s apartment door in their own native language . They try to fulfill individual needs as much as possible.. And when they can’t, they are willing to go the extra mile to find an agency in a timely and considerate manner.Then they follow up by a personal phone call or a one on one invite to confirm if the accommodation has been met. Tenants show their appreciation by picking up loose scraps of paper in corridors. elevator and the laundry room.. Christmas Thangsgiveng and personal cards for birthdays various other occasions are left with envelopes hoping that they will be put to good use.i can”t remember the last time I went to use a dryer in the laundry and their was a pile of lent left by the previous patron. When the coin machine in the laundry room has been emptied of quarters, I have seen a note with a bunch of quarters on top with a note of empathy stating, I know the feeling of having a pile of dirty laundry all ready for washing and you are trying to keep on schedule with your long list of “Today’s chores” I hope these extra quarters can be of help to you. ( and of course the. note is anonymous ) I personally have had a favorite lunch from childhood. Mom use to make grilled cheese sandwiches with Tomato soup.. I kept telling myself,I should get a grill from savers , but It kept slipping my mind. About six months ago, there was a grill on the cloths folding counter Saying I hope this can be of use to someone. I really don’t know how many different languages are spoken is this blessed facility . However, the language of kindness is not restricted to any one ethnicity and the respect For souls which the last time I counted was one for every person God made in his own image Is perhaps the strongest strength for Riley House. I was blessed by knowing Bishop Rley Personally and I can’t think of a more humble human being and just the fact that it is named after him (. By the way he didn’t want the recognition.) Deserves a sixth star . The virtuous behavior of so many tenants leads me to believe his spirit is still a among us. His Excellency’s comment to his parishioners was “Our help is in the name of the Lord” To which they responded “Who made heaven and earth”"

"Affordable subsidized housing for seniors. Excellent staff and very well maintained building."
