- They exude the grace, beauty, and compassion we should all be so fortunate to be wrapped in as death approaches.
- They bring love, acceptance, and companionship to the bedside of the dying person.
- Typically, the volunteers have never met the individual or their loved ones. There is no previous relationship to rely upon but rather only a powerful willingness to simply hold a space of absolute love and warmth.
