Happy Thanksgiving, No Meeting

My brother, Dave, and I were so fortunate in being able to care for our mother in her home until her death. Beyond the skill of the nurses and aides, it was the spirit of their mission—the compassion—which touched us most. Though we only worked with Hospice for a limited number of days, all the staff was caring, compassionate and faithfilled. We feel blessed by their service.
