  • HOSPICE VOLUNTEERS HONORED


    Wakulla County volunteers Hanna Henderson, Linda Carrier and Maryanne Geers at the luncheon.

    Big Bend Hospice had a wonderful time celebrating their amazing volunteers on Saturday April 29 at Good Samaritan Church in Tallahassee. Volunteers from all eight counties served by Big Bend Hospice showed up to celebrate, enjoy some entertainment, eat some great food and win some amazing prizes! The luncheon included live music by Saylor Dollar, a lasso demonstration by Trey & Tripp Young, and line dancing instructions from John Shaw. Volunteers had a chance to win a raffled off gift basket. The baskets were made by each department of Big Bend Hospice, as the staff’s way of saying thank you. Baskets included items like gift cards to restaurants, moonshine, gardening items and a 2 hour trail ride donated by Trey Young with Family Funeral Home. Pictured are three Wakulla County volunteers, Hanna Henderson, Linda Carrier and Maryanne Geers.
