When did you start volunteering for Longleaf? June 2019 What are you most proud of in your life? I am most proud of the fact that I strive to extract the lessons of each occurrence in my life, whether positive or negative. It is all apart of a much larger picture. Why did you decide to become a volunteer? I became a volunteer because I wanted more fulfillment and purpose in my Life. My kitchen career fed my ego for many years. Volunteering for Hospice feeds my soul. What has been one of your highlight moments in volunteering with Longleaf Hospice? I delivered flowers last Christmas for Longleaf. On my very last delivery I knocked on the door and waited. I don't think the caretaker expected me. She opened the door and I kindly introduced myself to her and her Husband. I handed her the flowers. Her eyes filled with tears as she thanked me several times and told me that the flower delivery really brightened her and her Husband's day. It solidified for me that very moment that even the smallest act of kindness goes such a long way.
