VERY IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ!

Dear Friends:

Due to the coronavirus, Hospice Care Network has decided to POSTPONE its Annual Bereavement Dinner that was scheduled for April 3^rd.

Safeguarding the health and well-being of all our guests is top priority.

Hospice Care Network joins with many other non-profits and businesses in doing what we can to slow the spread of the virus.

When the virus subsides, the bereavement dinner will be rescheduled.

The journal will still be printed (just at a later time).
Those who purchased tickets will be notified of the new event date and hopefully they will still be able to attend.

If they cannot attend the new date, they can either ask for a refund, change their contribution to a journal page or tell us to keep their contribution as a donation.

We appreciate your patience as we work to make alternative plans.  We promise to have more information for you as soon as possible.

Best,
Chris Court
Director of Special Events

P.S. JOURNAL ADS AND DONATIONS ARE STILL BEING ACCEPTED FOR THIS FUNDRAISER!
