Obituaries MAKE LIFE BETTER . Hilary Rotenberg sees first-hand how volunteers make life better for those facing terminal illness, and their families. Hilary, Director of Volunteer Services for Jewish Family Service, manages the Jewish Hospice & Chaplaincy Network's volun- teers. "These volunteers are special because of their ability to enter the life of someone they don't know who is dying," Hilary says. "It takes a special person to provide com- fort in trying times. Our volunteers are not afraid of it, and they help the client and family find calm and peace. "The client, the family and our volunteers all gain tremendously from the experiences and relationships they develop through hospice," Hilary says.
