Landis Homes: Enriching Lives, Together

Meet Roland and Dottie Yoder

For 44 years, Roland and Dottie Yoder lived in Montgomery County, Pa., where they pursued their respective vocations. In moving to Landis Homes, the Yoders furnished and decorated their home with cherished items from their travels, including pottery and wood carvings from overseas. Many of Roland’s paintings hang on the walls of their apartment and in public areas. He also crafted much of the furniture. Dottie enjoyed making window treatments for their new home.

Roland and Dottie Yoder’s apartment at Landis Homes is filled with beautiful paintings and pottery that were created by Roland along with other art collected from their world travels. Landis Homes photo.

As residents of Landis Homes, they find they now have more time to pursue their hobbies and interests. They stay involved and engaged mentally and physically through various activities, including the many environmental-impact groups on campus. Outdoors, Roland and Dottie plant flowers in several locations on campus that are enjoyed by many. They also grow vegetables in the community garden.
