She treated my mom and family as if we were her family. I helped take care of Mom, so Molly and I were in contact all the time. Molly always made my mom feel loved.
My mom recently passed away after being on hospice for over 6 months. Molly was her nurse. We became very close to Molly over that time. She treated my mom and family as if we were her family. I helped take care of Mom, so Molly and I were in contact all the time. Molly always made my mom feel loved. She was gentle and kind to her. On my mom’s birthday, I was having surgery so I couldn’t be there. Molly brought Mom a beautiful plant with yellow flowers. That was mom’s favorite color. The flowers began to die, so we set it outside, and it looked as if it was dead. The day after mom passed away the flowers began to bloom again and now the plant is beautiful! (I just wanted her to know that.)

Molly went above and beyond so many times. One time my mom had an accident and made quite a mess. My dad had been sick, and I was at my house recouping from surgery. Molly showed up at my parents' house, and I was on the phone with my dad. He was upset and passed the phone to Molly to talk to me. Molly simply and calmly said I will take care of this. She not only cleaned up the mess and mom, but she scrubbed the carpet on her hands and knees. Talk about going above and beyond!

Caring for a loved one on hospice is not easy, but she made it as easy as possible. The day before mom passed away, Molly brought a mother/daughter candle to me. It is beautiful! I displayed it at her service. It sits in my living room, and when I look at it, it gives me peace.

I can’t say enough great things about hospice. They make the difficult journey easier. I will forever hold a special place in my heart for my girls that helped so much. Thank you, Molly, for all your love, knowledge, and wisdom. You make a difference! We love you!
