About John D. Graham: With a life spent in senior services, author John D. Graham is a compassionate voice. His
perspective is informed with his vast array of experience in senior advocacy and in leadership of senior living organizations. In
sharing his expertise via his book, Cheeseburgers for Seniors: Top 10 Reasons Your Parents Don’t Want to Move to Senior Living,
with the burgeoning baby boomer population, he outlines pitfalls and warning signs, and offers alternative, proactive approaches. While some of these things can be uncomfortable to consider, lack of understanding and proper planning often leads to an undesirable outcome—an unpleasant lifestyle that could be avoided by making informed life choices.
