Terri
Hi, I’m Terri Howell, the Community Administrator at Hilltop Commons. Over the years I’ve had the pleasure of serving in a variety of roles at four of our Ray Stone Senior Living communities and my favorite part of each community is hearing the life stories of our residents. Their willingness to share their experiences and advice is a rare gift and one that I treasure with all my heart. I’m a lucky gal!

Hilltop truly enriches the lives of our residents and it’s such a privilege to introduce seniors to Hilltop Commons. There’s lots of fun and life ahead at our community!

Kelly Nevius
Hi, I’m Kelly Nevius, a multi-talented maintenance man who was blessed to have grown up in Nevada County. Along with being outdoors, I love the challenge of fixing almost everything. I am happy to help the Hilltop residents with their maintenance needs, and occasionally I am lucky enough to be able to entertain everyone with a song.
