Dear Friends and Supporters, It is with heavy hearts that we announce we must cancel our Laughter Lifts You Up women’s event that was scheduled to take place tomorrow, March 12, at Laurel Manor. As you know, Angela Hospice provides care to seriously ill and vulnerable patients. Our leadership and staff have continued to closely monitor the situation regarding COVID-19 following updates and recommendations from the CDC, the WHO, as well as state and local governments.
