Monsignor Larry, a resident at Richview Manor, remains an active part of the community, as a priest of the Archdiocese of Toronto and Judicial Vicar, where he continues to work daily from 8:00 am to 4:00 p.m. Above this, Monsignor Larry is also the president of the Resident Council and also manages to find the time to host Mass for the residents at Richview every Sunday. Monsignor Larry Bordonaro was recently honoured with the title of Monsignor by Pope Francis Chaplain of His Holiness on April 15th, 2014, for his continued dedication and service to the Church.

“I am happy to call Richview my home. I like that I can be close to my family and not have to worry about meals or housekeeping. The most important aspect of Richview, for me, is the fact that I can make a little community within in the residence and that I have the opportunity to socialize with people – something that I thought was lacking in my condo. It is really great that Richview provides me with so many great programs, like the bridge club, as well as with such a diverse array of services. I am happy to be able to provide Catholic Mass to the residents, but more than this, I am glad that Richview provides services for all the faiths. It is wonderful that I can live in a place that is so welcoming and respecting of all the different faiths and opinions. I still work, despite being in ‘retirement living’ and I want to stress that it is possible for you to stay independent and active even during retirement.”
