“Thank you for making the most difficult things easier…for the hugs when we were in need…your kindness, and for the strawberry sundaes. We thank you for sharing your gifts, and striving for excellence in the service of others.”
“The care given was excellent. The kindness and compassion given to our dad and family by the whole staff was outstanding and appreciated.”
“In all my contact with Hospice care, your people have shown more care and compassion to my husband and myself than I have ever experienced…”
“My mom received the best, most professional care we could possibly have hoped for. She was happy, pain free, and very well cared for.”
“Every time I have spoken with any one of your staff I always feel like I’m getting a big hug. Coming to Sharon S. Richardson was like having the weight of the world lifted off my shoulders.”
“The time while my mom was in your care, held some of the most traumatic yet incredible times of our family’s life. There are no words to describe the depth of our gratitude for your expertise, compassion, and guidance, whether medical or spiritual. The hospice and entire team never fell short of Kim’s promise. My mother was kept comfortable, at peace and passed with dignity. Our family will keep you in our hearts, thoughts and prayers forever. ”
“I don’t have words to describe it. My husband had become so weak but was still able to return the salute of the veteran volunteer. I know in my heart it meant everything to him. What an honor to send him off like that. He was a Marine until the very end.”
