“The staff at Alive Hospice at Skyline Madison Campus was phenomenal. Everyone from the kitchen staff to the doctors was so loving and supportive. Our family owes a great debt to you. Both parents went in a peaceful, dignified manner and were very comfortable to the end.

I now have a different perspective of my job at Cornerstone Hospice (Tavares, Florida). My prayer is that I will mirror the staff of Alive Hospice in my performance as a hospice nurse on a daily basis.”

“It is important that you know how deeply your efforts touch people. When they are at their most vulnerable – paralyzed with fear and unspeakable sadness – you reach out to embrace them, one human being to another, with the compassion that heals and offers hope.”

“My husband John loved Alive Hospice. He served on its board for nine years, requested its services for hundreds of patients and was an initial donor for Alive Hospice Residence of Nashville. When he had to succumb to his own illness, his only request of me was to call Alive Hospice, and it served John as well as me and out children. To this day I am eternally grateful to this phenomenal organization. Alive truly empowered me with great strength in knowing that John was comfortable as he quietly slipped away.”
