The team was so friendly, helpful, understanding and so very soothing. They made us feel like we mattered and that they were 100% there for us. I am so blessed to have had this team by my side as my family member passed on. I definitely couldn’t have done it without them. Thank you all. –Local Hospice Family
Everyone involved was a great help and support to me, assisting me in understanding my husband’s situation better, and enabling me to care for him in his last days. I can’t thank you all enough for that. You gave me the comfort and peace to accept the situation also. May God bless hospice care and all of you who contributed. For that I will always be grateful. The ‘Crossing the Creek’ booklets that you share with families are the best for anyone at a time like this.
I want to thank all the nurses, both day and evening shifts. Their commitment to patients and families is amazing! I continue to keep them in my prayers.
Our whole family was impressed with the nurses and home health aides. They not only did a great job with my husband but also took the time to talk and listen to us. It was a terrible time of my life to see my husband passing away, but a great gift not only to my husband, who was able to stay at home, but to his whole family who got to spend many hours a day with him.

No words could ever express my gratitude for all that your organization did for me and my family. The wonderful care provided in my mom’s time of need was exceptional. Instead of feeling uncomfortable having strangers come to our home, it felt warm and comforting like old friends coming to lend a hand. You are all very special people and I commend you on a job well done.
We want to express our gratitude for the professional and compassionate care that our mom received from all the personnel at Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice. From the day of admission until Mom’s death, we felt support and guidance for Mom and for our entire family. The communities of Sussex and Warren Counties are truly blessed to have the services of the hospice. Our family is extremely grateful that you were there when we needed you. Please let us know what we can do to support your mission in th… Read more

Thank you very much for the beautiful memorial service conducted in Newton on Monday night. For me, personally, it meant a lot to hear my daughter’s name mentioned and to have her honored along with all the other people. The entire service was quite moving and very spiritual for me. Please thank all the people that gave their time and talents to give to others.
