The pandemic continued on into 2021 and the needs at Josie Harper Hospice House remained about the same for the year as last. In early September Sandy Viner (chair) began shopping for the needs this fall. The needs continued to be body lotions, shampoos, body wash, baby powder, shaving cream, combs and tooth brushes. Gary the executive director and Lisa the development director asked if it would be possible to add non-ticking wall clocks for the rooms to the list and Sandy told them to let her know how many they needed.
On this bright sunny afternoon of November 9 Sandy and Gordy were ready to load the SUV and deliver the items that Sandy had purchased this fall. Upon arrivial we were met by Maggie and nurse Heidi. While unload the SUV Gary the director came out and visited with us before they took all of the items inside. Gary and Maggie thanked us and the Heartland Council Pioneers for all of the items we delivered.
