Hospice can help one to enjoy a dignified and meaningful life in the company of loved ones... It can also give the family support... How grateful we are to have compassionate workers who are skilled at this

The last thing to go is the hearing...just holding our love ones hand is comforting...Looking forward to no more pain and sorrow in the future...Revelation 21:3,4

We’re all familiar with the five stages of grief and we have come to expect that at some point following a death we might feel denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and ultimately, acceptance. So it may be surprising to learn that other feeling might appear that can be downright unexpected and uncomfortable.

So a few weeks ago a couple of co workers were arguing about recent shootings. Why are we arguing? ... We should be grieving. No killing is just and no murder is just. That is just pure wickedness. No man despite their best efforts will be able to stop this. I am looking forward to something better that God can only do - Revelation 21:3,4.
