"A FIVE STAR Rating for GRACE AND GLORY My brother has been my Mom’s caregiver now for over 10 years. Jane Porter RN is the only practitioner among very few others who earned our family’s trust… She shared her medical expertise often… Jane never gave up on finding the most effective medical solution… Grace and Glory Hospice has been a dream come true for our Mother because she trusts Jane. It has been a blessing as well for my brother, as he has the support he needs. Grace and Glory Hospice has given our family peace of mind… We wholeheartedly recommend Grace and Glory Hospice to other families who are seeking the BEST HOSPICE CARE for their loved ones. With much gratitude, Renee B."

"My name is Alison K., and I am writing a letter of gratitude for Grace and Glory Hospice… My husband’s mom was not feeling well and had lost her will to live. She was 89… Well, it finally got to the point that I could no longer take care of her on my own and needed help… Jane came to meet us all, and we all felt like she was brought into our lives by the grace of God. She was a perfect fit for me and my family… She guided us every step of the way. Explained everything they were doing… I (We) would recommend Grace and Glory to anyone who needs not only hospice care for a loved one but also an extended family member during your greatest need! Forever Grateful and Blessed, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas K."

"The GRACE and GLORY Team is AMAZING! You and the entire Grace and Glory Hospice Team were amazing. Thank you so much for everything. God was especially gracious to lead you to our doorstep one minute after Mom peacefully went to Glory. Wow! That was INCREDIBLE that you were there just when we needed you! You are a blessing to us, and I will always be grateful for those precious, sometimes challenging, unforgettable 2 ½ weeks my Mom was on hospice service. I miss Mom so much but am so happy for her! I know that she is with Dad in Heaven. One of her favorite songs was ‘Safe in the arms of Jesus.’ I know without a doubt she is with Jesus and with my Dad! Praying for you today. Love, Karla"

"“Dearest Jane, Please accept our heartfelt thanks from the entire family for the care you provided for our dad, Augustus (Gus), during his last days with us here. His time in the hospital, isolated from all who loved him, was an extremely stressful period. Your perseverance in working with the hospital staff and others to get him home to be with his family on hospice is truly the only reason he was able to be with us when he passed. Your compassion in communicating the very delicate information to our Mom, Gloria, and all the family on how to best keep Dad comfortable through those final hours will forever be appreciated. Grace and Glory is truly the perfect name for what you are doing through Hospice… Through your professional expertise and God’s Grace, you have brought Glory to our God through our Dad’s treatment. Thank you so very much for the continued prayers for our family and know that we will continue to pray for Grace and Glory Hospice and the many families who will be blessed by you in the days to come. With appreciation and Love, John and Gail (‘Gus’s kids’)”"

"We are so very grateful for the professionalism, kindness, and complete, compassionate care given to my 102-year-old mom. Grace and Glory think of everything and have such quality plans and back-up plans to assist my mom. I am very impressed and grateful to Jane, the Director and founder. What a difference all the staff have made. Loving and kind. I’ll just never forget you all!"
