Moments of Life made possible by Hospice and a little dog…

By Janice Valentino as told by Marilyn Serino It had been about six weeks that my brother Michael had been living at the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence, where I too had been staying for about three weeks. It was mid-February when Mike began talk to me about a dog. I asked if he was talking about his daughter’s dog, Delilah. He replied No. I asked if he was referring to my own dog, Piper. Again, Mike told me No. Mike mentioned the dog a few more times until he finally feel asleep that afternoon. I had no idea what dog he was talking about and soon forgot about it. Later that day, I overheard staff members talking about a little dog that was sleeping under the bushes on the grounds of the residence. Apparently, this little dog was either lost or abandoned and had been seeking refuge from the cold on the property. Being the dog lover that I am, I rescued the little visitor who was badly in need of some TLC, brought her home to be bathed, fed and took her to our vet to be checked out. I was thrilled when she received a clean bill of health. When I returned to Kaplan to be with my brother Mike, I was grateful to be able to bring along my new little friend. When I walked into Mike’s room, his first response was “Oh wow, Crash is here”. Crash had been our brother Gary’s little dog. Three years before, Gary had also been at Kaplan. Shortly after Gary passed away, so did Crash. Mike was right, this little dog did resemble Crash. I took this as a sign that Mike and I were not alone and our brother Gary, and Crash were watching out for us. This little dog, who we named “Mikey” soon found her way on Mike’s bed and nestled up to him as if she knew it was where she always belonged. I believe this little dog was meant to become a part of our family. I am grateful for her and the joy she brought my brother Mike at the end of his life. The memories of the wonderful moments that were shared at the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence with my brother Mike and “Mikey” will always be treasured.

Only that the woman reminded Valerie of her own In the summer of 2016, I received a visit from a lovely woman grandmother and asked if she could paint her portrait. named Jeannette Earl who lived in Lancaster PA. She had Jeannette, being touched by the image itself and the story with her a portrait and copies of email correspondences behind it, told Ben that she could not auction it to someone between herself and the artist’s family. Little did I expect who had no connection to this beautiful matriarch or the when I met Jeannette, that she would tell a tale of how she artist. Ben told her that Valerie would be pleased to know came to have the painting and its connection to Hospice of that her work brought such strong emotion. Orange and Sullivan Counties. Fast forward to Jeannette’s visit to my office; when I saw Jeannette, a volunteer for a hospice where she resides, the portrait, I too had a similar reaction. The woman dressed assists in an Annual Labor Day Auction with her role being so lovely, gazing out a window as if she was looking back to solicit artists for a donation of their work for this highly in time, took my breath away. I also wanted to know who anticipated fundraiser. A dear friend of hers, who resides in she might be. Goshen, NY, decided to donate the portrait for the then 2015 Press releases went out to local newspapers and on event. Jeanette made the trip to pick up the donation and social media, asking if anyone recognized this woman and when she looked at the piece she had what she explained possibly knew who her family was. Since Valerie once lived to me as an “OMG moment.” in Goshen for some time, and gifted the painting to her friend Jeanette’s friend, who gifted the portrait to her, did not from Goshen, I hoped that the subject may have once lived know anything about the subject, only that the artist was there in the 1980’s when the portrait was painted.

3 Friends Of Hospice Were More Than Ready To Step Into Spring

On April 12, 2018, the Friends of Hospice Sandi Cassese, COO & VP Mary Lewis & Colleen Fogarty hosted a lovely spring membership event at the five star award winning Stage Coach Inn, in Goshen NY. The event, held under the tent on the patio area of the Inn, was filled with the scent of spring time flowers. Guest speakers, Sandi Cassese, the new COO and Vice President of Hospice and Janice Valentino, Director of Marketing and Development, spoke of how hospice care changes lives of patients and families who receive this specialized care.

After a wonderful buffet, Colleen Fogarty, Faith Ferguson, Dan Grady and Barbara Naru a FOH board member, demonstrated flower arranging to the close to fifty guests who attended. Each guest received an opportunity to experience a little “spring time” by creating their own floral arrangements, most of which were donated to the Kaplan Family Hospice Residence. An elegant auction of items that lifted away the winter doldrums were enjoyed by all who participated and especially those who went home with their treasures. Thank you to Faith Ferguson, owner of Janice Valentino, Colleen Fogarty, Barbara Naru and FOH President, Ellen Galligan the Stagecoach Inn and Hospice Board Member, for a beautiful setting. Friends of Hospice proudly support The Children’s Grieving Center, Camp Chrysalis, and hospice families in need.

7 With a little help from our friends…

As a non-profit 501C3, Hospice of Orange and Sullivan Counties, Inc. is very appreciative of those who donate to our organization. Whether we receive donations through memorials, hospice events, fundraisers, estates, on line or through our Facebook page, we are so grateful to all whom through their generosity, allow us to continue our mission to provide patients and families with compassionate physical, emotional and spiritual end of life care and offer bereavement support for both adults and children in our communities. Joanne Stalter and daughter Jennifer Neos were so grateful for the hospice care husband and father Kevin Stalter received last summer, they wanted to do something special in Kevin’s Memory and to Honor Hospice. In June they held a yard sale in Napanoch, In Loving Memory of NY and raised $1,100 to benefit Hospice. Joanne and Jennifer said that the project helped them with their Kevin Stalter grief and gave them joy to help ensure others receive the amazing care for their loved ones as they received August 12, 2017 for Kevin.

Ride on “Shiney”… Ride On…

Hospice of Orange and Sullivan Counties, Inc. is grateful to the Friends of Thomas “Shiney” Van Horn, who not only continue to honor the memory of their beloved Thomas, but also continue to support Hospice Care.

On March 24, 2018 the 18th Annual “Shiney” Van Horn Run brought in $6,680 in donations made in Loving Memory of Tommy “Shiney” Van Horn. To date this dedicated family and friends have donated over $35,000 to Hospice on behalf of this annual event. Tommy was a Harley man and loved to ride his motorcycle with his friends. We thank all friends and family who continue to ride, keeping his memory alive. The RIDE will continue on March 23, 2019 at Dad’s Change of Pace Port Jervis, New York!

8 Hospice of Orange and Sullivan Counties, Inc. is in its 30th year of bringing compassionate physical emotional and spiritual end of life care with comfort, dignity and respect. But many times we are asked from our community members… When should I call Hospice? Hundreds of times each year, patients and families tell us: “We wish we called hospice sooner.” Patients and families can benefit most from hospice care when they seek support earlier rather than in a crisis. To answer more of your questions please join us for our educational seminar series. The Being Mortal Community Project/Cornwall Friday, September 14th 1:30 pm– 3:30 pm Town of Cornwall Senior Center (Munger Cottage) Behind the Cornwall Library/395 Hudson Street, Cornwall A Documentary will be presented with Q & A Hosted by Dr. Danielle Belser, Associate Medical Director and members of a Hospice Care Team This is free and open to the public but reservations are requested due to limited space. Janice Valentino 561-6143 x 324 email [email protected]

The Being Mortal documentary shares new light on how our system so often focused on a cure, neglects the important conversations that need to happen so that a person’s true priorities can be known and honored, based on the best seller Being Mortal by Dr. Atul Gawande.

Long awaited springtime finally came on March 24, 2018 at Anthony’s Pier 9. The beautiful pearl themed decor convinced even the skeptic that spring had finally arrived.

The 30th Anniversary Pearl Gala was an evening of celebration of all who helped the organization to reach this amazing milestone. Staff, volunteers, and board members were recognized for their years of support and selfless dedication to patients and families cared for each and every day. Our auction donors, sponsors, and almost 300 guests were responsible for the success of our Pearl Gala which netted more than $105,000 for the organization.
