Testimonials

Please accept this gift as a memorial to Dad and Mom.  A heart-felt thank you for the compassion, kindness and very professional manner with which you cared for them and for us, the family.  Words fail us in expressing our gratitude and thanks!...RF Family

Dear Fremont Regional Hospice,

As you know, my mother dies three weeks ago tonight. She died at peace with the world and in her sleep, with family gathered around.  Hospice provided loving care and companionship for her in her last days and hours, something that she and we her family, found very comforting. You helped us all plan for  and execute those last days in the most effective ways. Thank you all for your love, expertise and companionship.

Dearest Staff,

I extend a heart full of gratitude to you for all of your help and assistance in such a short time.  You are a blessing, a lamp in a dark world, full of love, peace and genuine compassion. Thank you all for your encouragement.  Just your presence which carries the love of the Lord, blessed up above and around. You brought a calm to the storm and compassion to the heartbreak. God richly bless you and yours with love and compassion.
