Disappointed

I am the daughter of Mr. and Mrs Home of Jersey City, My mom lived here all her life.And my father lived here for over 60 years.My mom 80 years old. And my father 85. They were denied a one bedroom apartment because of a over 30 year back ground check, for my father. To me this was wrong. And putting two elderly people though such,emotional unnecessary Truma at the last moment and telling them they could not move into the Fremont Senior Building has put every good life time memory of Jersey City for me to shame. I am very disappointed in the management of this establishment. And I pray this doses not have and negative effect on my mom and pop. If I had it my way I would move them out of Jersey City all together. How seniors are treated in many cases.
