What to do with Your House
What makes a house a home? It’s not the finishings or
the furnishings, it’s the people who live there, and the
love they share. So, what happens when your husband,
wife, or partner passes away, and you’re left alone to
decide what to do next? Should you stay, or should you
go? It’s no easy decision, but it’s yours to make.
Honesty Heals in Hospice
Honesty is critical during hospice because it leads to
cohesive acceptance and support, but it isn’t always easy.
Retired Our Lady of Peace Chaplain June Franko says a
common thread for all is not wanting to hear that death
is imminent, and not wanting to accept that it is.
Monarchs Brings Comfort & Peace
Every year on National Grief Awareness Day, Our Lady
of Peace Hospice and Home Health Care celebrates
the lives of those who have passed in our care, while
acknowledging the love and grief that remains in the
hearts of their families.

What to Expect at OLP

uninterrupted sleep. And, statistics reveal they heal faster
in a familiar environment, surrounded by the people
they love.
Peace of Mind for Adult Children Caregivers
More than ever, older Minnesotans want to return home
as quickly as possible, following a necessary hospital stay.
Their adult children also want them to return home, but
sometimes struggle with the aftercare, amid busy work
schedules and lack of experience with necessary cares.
Music Therapy is Magical
Music Therapist Lydia J. Holmes, with Alliance Music
Therapy, helps patients at Our Lady of Peace Hospice
and Residential Hospice forget their pain and find
comfort and peace through music.
Supporting a Grieving Child
Sometimes it’s hard to fi nd the words to describe the
feelings you have when a loved one enters hospice
care. And, it can be even harder to fi nd the words to
tell the children in your life what is happening and
what is to come.
