    Description

    Vigil Volunteers

    Vigil volunteers quietly join a patient and family in their last days to hours. They provide a calm and attentive presence to the bedside of the dying person. Typically, the volunteers have never met the individual or their loved ones. There is no previous relationship to rely upon but rather only a powerful willingness to simply hold a space of absolute love and warmth.
