Our first Club meeting of the new Rotary year included an informative and heartfelt presentation from our very own Kim Slater Heil to update us on the VNA Foundation Collins Hospice House. Although they refer to it as a house, it is more like a home, a home away from home for those needing quality end of life hospice care. A key takeaway from her presentation, "hospice isn't scary, it is learning to live with something you can't fix, for as long as you live." Thank you Kim and everyone at the Collins House. You all exemplify "service above self."
