Bay Village: The First Ten Years: 1971-1981

By Byron K. Rust

Book Overview

To the Reader of our father's book: This story chronicles the first years of Bay Village, a dream brought to fruition. Years ago, a visionary group of people recognized the need for a caring home for those in their later years. Their vision encompassed the desires and needs of the future residents, regardless of what the future might hold for them. Thus, for their active years, provision would be made for many social and entertainment activities. However, if the time came for complete care, this would be provided in an excellent, professional, and caring manner. My sisters and I have witnessed the reality of this dream, not only in the physical plant, but also in the lives of our parents, who were among the first residents. Many years were spent making new friends and enjoying the many activities that Bay Village offered. At all stages of their lives, they received, as my physician said, "the best care that Sarasota has to offer." Needless to say, we are grateful to Bay Village for the quality of life that it provided our parents for many years. As the story of Bay Village unfolds, we know that residents and family members will be grateful that the vision shared by a few in the past has created a home environment that will continue to be so meaningful to so many. Sincerely, The daughters of Angelyn and Byron Rust
