Testimonials

Living Waters Hospice provided excellent service for my Mother during her latter years. Each of the various staff members are very caring, compassionate, gentle and show love at all times. I honestly can't say enough good things about the quality as well as the quantity of time each individual gives. They are an abundant blessing. I have referred several of my close friends and family to them due to their sincere devotions to their clients.
Former patient Family Member
Living Waters Hospice has been such a blessing to my family. They treated my father with such respect and love. They were there for us every step of the way, guiding us and loving us all through a very difficult time. We will forever be grateful for their support, love, and care.
Former patient Family Member
My family and I want to thank everyone who had a part in helping care for our loved one. Anything we needed we were given. All the help was greatly appreciated. Also, thanks for the certificate for Veterans Day and the signed card. The certificate looks so good in its frame that is hanging on the wall in his bedroom. Your thoughtfulness was a bright spot during a hard time. May God bless all of you.
