Our Mission and History
The story of Stafford Suites is rooted in a legacy of caring that spans generations. Since 1945, the Ostrom family has been dedicated to serving senior adults with expertise, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to Christian values. This legacy began with C.B. Horton, father of Marlene Ostrom, who saw a need for a more loving and individualized approach to senior care. He converted schools and churches into welcoming spaces where older adults could maintain their dignity and independence while receiving the care they needed.
Today, the Ostrom family’s passion for service continues to shape everything we do at Stafford Suites. We are more than just a place to live; we are a community where seniors can truly thrive. Our highly skilled staff is drawn to this work not just as a job but as a calling—to serve others with honesty, integrity, and love. This commitment to the Golden Rule and the principles of caring and compassion is evident in every aspect of our community.
When you walk through the doors of Stafford Suites, you’ll feel the warmth and connection that define our community. Our team is dedicated to supporting our residents’ independence and freedom of choice, fostering a quality of life that is rich in shared laughter, quiet conversations, and moments of joy. We believe that true service is about more than meeting physical needs—it’s about inspiring a genuine zest for life.
