5 Things You Need to Know This Week

Patch gives you a rundown of what's going on in the Ross and West View Areas this week.

1. Catholic Hospice Volunteer Training

One of life's most rewarding experiences is to serve on the Catholic Hospice Team as a volunteer. Many people mistakenly associate hospice only with sorrow. However, Catholic Hospice volunteers often experience times of joy, peace and heartwarming closeness with their patients. Because we truly value each day, we emphasize living every moment we have together. Click here for more details.
