“I’m new to this part of the Twin Cities, and my husband Jeff and I previously volunteered with hospice in Lakeville — a role we both loved. I’m drawn to Tamarisk’s mission and feel especially called to support individuals facing dementia, as it has touched my own family. My current companion is on hospice, and I feel honored to support those who are nearing the end of life.”

“I recently retired after more than 25 years as a hospice RN and was familiar with Tamarisk through my professional work. I’m inspired to volunteer because I know that one day I may need the same kind of presence and care Tamarisk provides. Giving back in this way feels both meaningful and natural.”
