One of the many benefits of living in a senior living community is the ability to enjoy an active social life and make new friends.

At Sunrise of McLean Village in Northern Virginia, two residents quickly turned from acquaintances to neighbors to best friends—and they’ve never looked back.

Described as “inseparable” by the Fairfax County Times, Pat Danchak and Joan Bratti love taking advantage of the community’s activities and events together. From flower arranging to board games to sharing stories with local teenagers, this dynamic duo feels grateful to have found such a meaningful friendship at this stage in their lives.
