MaryEllen Curtis

After having careers as a Home Interiors Representative and owning her own business as a Manicurist, MaryEllen had a desire to help the generation before her. Along with her husband they opened Still Waters Cottages in their private residence. In her words, “Seniors are our untapped national treasure. My joy is to hold someone’s hand and give them comfort and love.”

In her spare time, MaryEllen enjoys knitting/crocheting, scrapbooking, and

spending time with their grandchildren. Her and her husband are fanatical fans of Spokane Chiefs hockey! They have a sweet Yorkie named Molly, a cat “Mr. Tommy” and a Green-Cheeked Conure named Bella.
