  12. On behalf of our staff and residents at Heritage Manor, I send condolences to Jan and family on the loss of Trevor. From his regular visits to his mates to becoming a much loved resident, Trevor was a popular guy at HM, making others feel welcomed and comfortable in his presence. Trevor was a great mate to my Dad, he played a huge part in Dad’s transition into care and for that I am so thankful.
    Lots of love, Katie & the Lifestyle Team
