HOSPICE HEROES

THE
PROMISE
Barbara Greenberg says she needed to
spend her retirement in a meaningful way,
so she volunteers for the Jewish Hospice &
Chaplaincy Network. It helps me live a
more Jewish life," she says. "It means giving
of yourself and connecting with each other."
As a child Barbara visited the elderly and
infirm with her father, a physician who
made house calls. Later, when Barbara's
father was dying, a hospice volunteer helped
her family through that difficult time.
Today, Barbara visits with clients and helps
them remember happier days.
"Our hospice clients are the true heroes,
and if I didn't do this, I would have missed
knowing the most wonderful, devoted and
loving people." Barbara says. "These are
opportunites that enrich my own life."
