Letter to the Editor

Hospice is a Non-Profit organization whose primary purpose is to be helpful and supportive for Wrangellites and their families through the final stages of life. Hospice maintains and makes available durable medical equipment from the Community Loan Closet. The Dove Tree Ceremony is also arranged and conducted by Hospice volunteers.

Hospice sponsors and sets up Christmas Tree Lane decorating in the Nolan Center Lobby during the Christmas Season. This is the only fundraiser that Hospice has, using the funds for its activities and to purchase new equipment for the loan closet. Jacquie Dozier started and chaired this fundraiser for many years. This year Elaine Torvend will be chairing the fundraiser, which will start after Thanksgiving. The Hospice Board looks forward to continuing the Christmas tree lane tradition. Please help support this tradition by either sponsoring a tree, wreath, Christmas Decoration or just by bidding on one of the many beautiful trees this year.

Elaine Torvend
