A group of Bereans are once again holding their own special event to raise funds for Hospice Care Plus.
“Save a Seat,” a dinner and show, is scheduled for Sat., Oct. 17, 6PM, at the Rock House, located behind Church on the Rock in Berea.
Created by Donna Angel, the event will raise funds for new furniture at Hospice Care Plus’s Compassionate Care Center.
The evening will feature a buffet meal, a twenty-one foot dessert and confection buffet, live music by the Overtones quartet out of Louisville and Howie McKinney from Salem, and the auction of an heirloom quilt donated by Mrs. Lonnie Reppert of Berea.
Reservations are $50 per person and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. To make a reservation, mail a check payable to Hospice Care Plus to Community Trust Bank, PO Box 27, Berea, KY, or make your reservations in person at Community Trust Bank at 525 Walnut Meadow Road, Berea.
Hospice Care Plus empowers those we serve to enjoy the highest quality of life, respecting their values, beliefs, needs, and goals through specialized care, education, resources, and grief support.

To Be Thanked for His Service
Honoring those who have served our country is one of our greatest joys. Not everyone understands how important it can be for a veteran to be formally recognized for their service, especially as the end of life nears.
To Have Coffee with an Old Friend
When we ask our patients what’s most important to them or what’s on their minds, what we are trying to do is learn. We can’t meet a need that we haven’t learned about. Many needs are relatively obvious and easy to meet: a walker for support, a new medication to treat a new symptom, for instance. Other needs take time to reveal themselves, but they are no less important.
