Dear Friend of House of John,
As autumn arrives with its breathtaking show of color, the falling of the leaves isn't a loss but a necessary release—a final exhale before a period of rest. It's a reminder that change is a natural part of life, a powerful metaphor in our own lives of having to let go.
Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult journeys we face, impacting us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. In a world of constant change, one thing remains the same: the quiet, steadfast care we offer to those who come to call the House of John home in their final days. Our staff and volunteers always strive to provide comfort and dignity to residents and their loved ones in a peaceful, supportive environment. Here are just a few of the encouraging words we've received from families this past year:
"We are so grateful for the exceptional care and compassion you provided to our mother. From the moment we arrived, we were met with warmth and understanding. Every team member went above and beyond to ensure Mom felt safe, comfortable, and cherished. The personalized attention and genuine empathy made a world of difference and brought our family immense comfort."
"My sister was with you for seven weeks, and each day was a joy for her. You turned the hardest weeks of her life into a time of new friendships and feeling loved. She loved each of you, and that meant the world to us. Thank you for loving her, for spoiling her, and for always having her needs as the priority."
We are a small house with a big mission. It is a mission we can only fulfill because of your generous support each year. We ask you to consider a donation to our 2025 Annual Appeal to help us continue to provide comfort and care when it matters most.
With Gratitude,
Kathy Barrick, BSN, RN
Executive Director
