For my family, the answer was right in our own home.

“When my father, Marcelino, found out he had a terminal illness, he insisted on spending his final months at home. He didn’t want to even think about being anywhere else.

Maria, daughter of Marcelino ‘‘ “My family wanted to have Papi stay home, too. We believe in taking care of our own.

“Hospice of Northwest Ohio made it possible by sending us doctors, nurses, aides and social workers – plus coordinating his medicines and equipment. Hospice responded to our every need and kept my father feeling good enough to enjoy many visits with our big family.

“Papi’s final wish was to return to his original home, Puerto Rico, for his last days. Hospice of Northwest Ohio arranged to transfer him to a hospice program there, where he passed away in peace. For me and my family, the compassion of Hospice really hits home.”

As a supporter of outgoing member Wade Kapszukiewicz, I felt confident that my record of two successful terms as a board member of the Washington Local Schools, along with my longtime community involvement in the area and my professional experience in city government, had prepared me to realize my goal to proudly represent the voters of District 6. Sadly, my decision to seek the post was countered by the appointment being given, by the Democratic leader- 419-240-1230 ship, to Mr. Joe Blaze. Believing in my efforts and years of community service in District 6, I decided to move forward with my campaign. Nonetheless, my passion for serving in this district went beyond the political decisions involved. Our cam- paign goal for Citizens for Lisa Canales-Flores’ was to simply let the voters make their decision on November 8, 2005. We have not wavered from that decision we made together as a campaign committee.
