A Community Built on Care and Connection
Retirement Unlimited, Incorporated (RUI) was founded in 1982 by Virginia entrepreneurs and lifelong friends Horace Fralin and Elbert Waldron. Inspired by a shared commitment to exceptional service and enriched lifestyles for seniors, they created a new kind of senior living experience — one defined by meaningful programming, elegant environments, and personalized support.
Now in its third generation of family leadership, RUI continues to honor that original vision. Every community is built on the same foundation of compassion, innovation, and excellence — delivering the lifestyles our residents have earned and deserve.
Discover how RUI can make a difference in your life or the life of someone you love.

” My Uncle is a resident at The Wellington and we visited over the Thanksgiving
holiday. The decorations were beautiful and the food and service is excellent. The
new Chef made us an amazing meal. My wife noticed all the little decorative
touches around the building and it is always so clean. We will visit more because my
uncle is so happy here.”

“My Dad is a recent resident of the Wellington and it has been wonderful so far. He is
treated with care and every time I visit, he has something new to show me. He
enjoys trivia and the food. All the staff smile in the hallway and are eager to help him
with anything. I am very happy we made the decision to make the Wellington his
new home.”

“I have visited my Mom, who has lived at The Wellington at Lake Manassas for over a
year. The food is GREAT and the staff is always smiling. Whenever I have a concern,
it is addressed and I feel good about my Mom living there. I love seeing all the dogs
from other residents. It truly feels like a home.”
