Flower Power

Hospice CNA takes flowers to patients at Caring Circle.

Each week, fresh flowers are donated to the Caring Circle offices in Buchanan, South Haven, and St. Joseph by local businesses. These flowers are transformed into beautiful bouquets by Caring Circle volunteers from all over Southwest Michigan to help brighten the lives of those in hospice care.

“Following retirement from teaching, I was looking for an opportunity to help my community. My dear friend Joyce encouraged me to join the flower volunteer group at Caring Circle and I knew it was the outreach I wanted to take part in. Providing flower bouquets and spreading smiles to those who are facing challenging health issues brings me so much joy!”
~ Sandy Robards

“I feel very fortunate to have the privilege of working with such warm and wonderful staff at Caring Circle. Through the past years of doing what we love, our group of volunteers have also developed a special bond of sisterhood between us. We just feel blessed!”
~ Joyce Burchholtz

“I am a breast cancer survivor. Having been through a double mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation, I appreciated having the brightness of fresh flowers during my recoveries. This is a way for me to make that happen for others too and I hope that when I am in their position, someone will take the time to make it happen for me.”
~ Debbie Bach
