Program
Today Cher Nelson and Anne Powers of St. Joseph’s Medical Center Hospice program spoke to us.  Cher spoke on the hospice program they offer to help people with death.  They have a full team of people to help the patient and the patient’s family.  Anne Powers spoke on the “Tree of Life” fundraiser.  It kicks off on Wednesday, December 1, 1999, at St. Joseph’s Medical Center.  There are 500 lights available and for just a $5.00 donation in the name of someone you’ve lost or someone currently in need of hospice care, you will have a light lit on the tree.  The goal is to light all 500 lights.  Last year there were around 350 lit.  The money raised from “The Tree of Life,” along with the personal contributions from estates and families that have been served by St. Joseph’s Hospice over the years, are used to provide things for the families and patients that insurance does not cover.  St. Joseph’s Medical Center Home Care and Hospice is located at 303 Kingwood Street or call 828-7444.  November is National Hospice Month.
