In response to Ms. Clark’s review of Silver Spur Assisted Living. We have been in business since 1973. We care deeply about our residents. Ms. Clark only had $40 and needed a place to live on the 6th of the month. We accepted her into a brand new private room with a flat screen TV and a refrigerator. We met all of her needs. She moved out several months later with no notice and never paid the back room and board owed.

I lived at silver spur for 8 months. The Pates were greedy and selfish with our money. I never got my fair share dollar amount they legally should have paid me to live there compared to other Rcf facilities. They had lots of fun with the residents money a home in Florida and also Branson. I left as soon as I could get away. I felt confined daily not comfortable.
