    Description

    In search of Legacy Writers! Join our Afterword Program!

    Af.ter.word (noun)- in literature, an additional piece at the end of the work; usually describes how the story came to be and/or how it was developed.

    Gentiva Hospice boasts a talented, collaborative team of volunteers ready to help patients/families continue their story.

    The services the "afterword" Team provide are always complimentary. Examples of how the team can help patients/families author MORE of their story include:

    • Creating a special, lasting gift for family (e.g., a framed photo, artwork, etc.)
    • Documenting memories in booklet form
    • Digitizing some photos and creating an album for family
    • Assisting family members in writing memorial tributes (i.e., obituary and eulogies)
    • And more.

    If you have any questions or need additional information, feel free to email our volunteer coordinator at jean.murray@gentivahs.com or call 952-314-9738.
