Ponderosa Villa had to evacuate. Ponderosa Villa isn’t simply a building. Firefighters continued their work protecting the communities while countless others made sure the residents of Ponderosa Villa never lacked for comfort or care. For many of our residents, walking—or rolling—back through the doors of Ponderosa Villa was more than returning to a building. We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to the dedicated staffs of Ponderosa Villa and Hemingford Care Center.
