Bradley, Illinois (PRWEB) November 18, 2013 -- Heritage Woods of Rockford, a BMA affordable assisted living community, is partnering with Heartland Hospice to host a remembrance service at 2 p.m. on Nov. 19.
The community, which is located at 202 N. Show Place Dr. in Rockford, Illinois, serves older adults of all incomes, including those on Medicaid, who need some help to maintain their independence.
