In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make a donation to Hospice in your town.
We called Gentiva for Hospice and could not have been happier that we did. They made sure that Dad was never in pain and was able to complete his journey with dignity and pride. They also were phenomenal with Mom. They taught us what we didn't know, and they hugged us when we needed it. We could not have asked for better care or guidance. Because of your donations, Hospice will continue to cost the families nothing and will ensure that they continue to be available in your area.
