Testimonials

It was fabulous. There was such a peace when I walked through that door that day.
- Marge Bender

It didn’t feel like she was institutionalized. It felt like she was over at some friend’s house having skilled care. It doesn’t feel institutional, it feels much more homey.
- Jane Fleming

The minute I walked into the hospice house, I felt like it was a piece of heaven. All of the wonderful angels, the nurses, the staff surrounded us.
- Marge Bender

When my dad was dying, I think as important as the physical care was the emotional care that my mom got from the aides and the nurse.
- Jane Fleming

The biggest thing for us is it allowed us to sleep at night, carry on, knowing that she was cared for.
- Polly Grimshaw

We like for it to be quiet and calm environment, a place where the families can come and feel like a home for them, and just a place where they can come and see their loved one, and not make it feel like an institution, just try to make it as comfortable as possible.
- Sara Lemonds, Inpatient Manager

And the organization is so well run and so appreciative of volunteers, that it’s a pleasure to be a volunteer. Hospice is, for volunteers, is a really rewarding place to put in your time, because not only the patients appreciate what you’re doing, but the organization appreciates it.
