THREE GENERATIONS OF SERVICE
Our Legacy
Since 1958, our family has pioneered senior housing, beginning with The Monticello Hall in Kelso, Washington. This legacy evolved with the first assisted living community in the Pacific Northwest. Today, Fields Senior Living continues this tradition, focusing on warm, elegant communities.
Our History
In 1958 Emmett and Alice Koelsch, our grandparents, pioneered our family’s beginnings in the senior housing industry. It began with their very first nursing home, The Monticello Hall, in Kelso, Washington.
Between Emmett and Alice working together, their partnership went on to build the first assisted living community in the Pacific Northwest, Delaware Plaza. Their legacy has been passed on to their children who own and operate independent living, assisted living and memory care communities across the country.
Our Family Legacy
In 1989, our parents, Dr. Larry Bunn and Nancy Bunn Munro, continued the legacy of developing and designing the first Assisted Living Community in Tacoma, WA, The Weatherly Inn. Fueled by Larry’s pioneering vision, combined with Nancy’s creative design, their communities in the Puget Sound have become a benchmark in the senior housing industry.
