Saturday, April 24, was the date for the Annual Volunteer Appreciation Brunch. Many of the current volunteers were there to partake of the lucious food prepared by J.M.B. Catering Co. . . . Jean the Food Queen to us. Since there were several Volunteers unable to attend, I would like to share the non-food high points with you.
Rather than a small gift to each one, there has been a generous donation made in your names to the Clinton-Bush Haiti Relief Fund. We feel that this constitutes a meaningful gift that goes a long way.
Here is also the gracious note sent you all by Caroline MacDonald, Beacon Volunteer Coordinator and Friend to us al (below). And lastly, the poem I found that speaks to all of you (also below). You Volunteers are the core, the heart of Hospice of York; without you we would not be able to do what our msision calls for us to do . . . to BE THERE for our neighbors.
A huge thank you, along with a big hug to each and every one of you!!
Love, Dee
One more note: here are the Door Prize Winners from the lunch;
