This is who we are

We are volunteers. Theater goers. Educators. Fitness enthusiasts. Environmentalists. We are many things, but mostly, we are a community. We are Piedmont Gardens. Come join us.

Hezla

Finding Community and Care

As physicians, Dr. Hezla and her husband, Dr. Pareed, both know the importance of having access to exceptional care. So, when Pareed’s Parkinson’s disease became too difficult to manage living in the family home, they made the decision, with encouragement from their two daughters, to move to Piedmont Gardens. 
Allen

Sharing His Love of Music and Culture

When asked what committees Allen serves on, it’s easier to mention the ones he’s not involved with at Piedmont Gardens. Allen’s can-do attitude shines through in everything he does both on the campus and in the greater community. From serving as vice president of the resident council to participating in the music, activities, film and social work committees, Allen keeps himself and other residents active and connected.
Lois

Protecting the Planet and Her Community

Ever since Lois Richerson was a small child, she has had a love of the outdoors and a deep-rooted respect for the environment. That passion is now making a positive impact on Piedmont Gardens’ footprint. Shortly after she moved to the community, she became very active in the ecology committee, which plans programs and events to educate residents about environmental advocacy and sustainability.
Sheila & Jerry

Giving Equals Gaining

When Sheila and Jerry moved to Piedmont Gardens, they were truly surprised by the deep connections and lasting friendships they established very early on, which they credit to the kind team members and a fantastic program organized by Piedmont Gardens called GEAR (Gratitude, Exercise, Adaptability and Relationships).

Piedmont Gardens is an award-winning senior living community.
