Team

Leadership

Our leadership team is made up of highly trained professional staff members and involved, dedicated members of the community who guide and shape our community. These passionate individuals are our greatest asset.

Patricia Peterson, Marketing Director

With 35 years’ experience, my passion is to see our Residents live their best life. I have worked at the Gables since 2013, working with Elders since 1986. My experience ranges from being a caregiver for 20 years, helping families in many capacities to working in administrative positions in Homecare and Assisted Living. I have found my niche at the Gables.  Our Team is a community of friends working together helping residents and their loved ones. My focus is providing residents and their families with a smooth transition into a lifestyle of community and friendship that fosters independence while providing the right level of care.

Danielle Melvin, Wellness Nurse

My name is Danielle Melvin, and I have dedicated over 20 years to nursing. My passion for caring for others was ignited in childhood, as I accompanied my mom to her job at an assisted living facility, where I volunteered in the activities department. From a young age, I aspired to become a nurse. My professional background spans various areas, including assisted living, long-term care, case management, and outpatient day surgery. I am absolutely thrilled to join the team at The Gables and contribute to the outstanding care provided there each day!

Outside of my professional life, I have been married for 20 years and have four wonderful children ages 10, 14, 17, and 18. Family holds a special place in my heart, and I am very grateful to God for the blessing. We love hiking, playing sports, serving our community, being active in our church, and embarking on road trip adventures together!

The Pelletier Family Legacy: A Commitment to Excellence in Senior Living

For over 37 years, the Pelletier family has been more than just the builders, owners, and operators of The Gables of Fitchburg—we have been devoted to creating a community where seniors thrive. Our story began with a vision shared by Rich Pelletier and his father, Bob Pelletier, who played an integral role in developing The Gables. Together, they laid the foundation for a place where families could feel confident that their loved ones were receiving the highest level of care, dignity, and respect.

Today, Rich, along with his sons, Jesse and Justin, remains actively involved in every aspect of The Gables. But for us, this is more than just a business—it’s personal. Rich’s own parents, Bob and Dot Pelletier, proudly call The Gables home, reinforcing our unwavering commitment to continuously enhancing the quality of life for every resident.

As a family-owned and operated community, we take immense pride in providing a warm, welcoming, and enriching environment. The same love, dedication, and care we give to our own family, we extend to yours—because at The Gables, family always comes first.
