LETTERS: Hospice supporters are appreciated years ago
To the Editor:
We wish to say thank you to the community for their support of the 2004 Hospice Tree of Life. The tree lighting ceremony that took place Nov. 29 was both meaningful and beautiful. The tree spoke to our community's financial support for the extraordinary care of hospice. Thank you to the donors who remembered a deceased loved one or who honored a living loved one with their gifts. More than 400 names were added to the name book throughout the holiday season. The Tree of Life is a testimony to our community's continued support of hospice and stands as a beautiful symbol of the holiday season.
Central Homecare & Hospice and the Friends of Hospice wish to thank the following individuals, businesses, and groups for volunteering their time, resources, in-kind gifts, and sponsorship to help make this event possible: The family of Phyllis Brosemer, Citizens State Bank, Central National Bank, Tampa State Bank, Peabody High School Voices directed by Allison Many, Marion Christian Church, Marion Christian Women's Fellowship, Carlson's TV & Radio Service, Marion County Record, Hillsboro Star-Journal, Peabody Gazette-Bulletin, City of Marion, Don Hess, Senior Citizens of Marion County, Inc., Sanders Electric, and Keith Allison of Marion Presbyterian Church.
Friends of Hospice serving our community are Dwight and Helen Beckham, Kathleen Brenzikofer, Charles and Blanche Cowan, Lu Janzen, Larry King, Joyce Kyle, Carole Spohn, Noreen Weems, and Edwin and Alice Winters.
