When families struggle to transition from a longtime gathering place

Our extended family has been gathering at my aunt's house for holidays for decades, but she's getting older and the house is becoming harder for her to manage, and no one wants to suggest meeting somewhere else because it would feel like admitting she can't do it anymore — meanwhile the gatherings feel stressful for everyone.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Loyalty to both a place and a person is preventing adaptation that everyone knows is needed, creating shared but unspoken stress.
