Brown, Hospice of the Bluegrass President and CEO. “We recognize that the grief process will continue well beyond the initial shock confronting so many right now, so we want our communities to know that Hospice grief services will be available to the community in the long difficult days ahead, not just in the short term.” Hospice of the Bluegrass has offered to provide services to the family members who are currently staying at the Crowne Plaza Campbell House in Lexington, and has also been in contact with the Lexington mayor’s office. Other area hospices, including Hospice of Louisville and Hospice Care Plus, are providing additional staff as needed. Hospice of the Bluegrass provides the highest quality interdisciplinary care to all terminally ill patients and their families. This agency complies with Equal Opportunity and Title XIV guidelines.

Text Box: What's Missing from the Community Service Center? Yes, our donation bin has been removed due to several reasons. We do not really have the man power to bring all of the donations upstairs, and sometimes things are left in the bin that ruin the rest of the donations. Also, many large items are left by the bin, and we do not have the man power to move them, nor any place to store them. Please do not leave donations outside of the building. Because your donations are important to us and the programs of the Community Service Center, we are asking that you bring your donations when the Center is open. Those hours are Tuesday and Saturday from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. and Thursday evenings from 5:00 until 8:00 p.m. You may call the Center at 858-2819 to make arrangements to drop off items at other times. The Community Service Center is also in need of volunteers to deliver Lunch Bunch lunches to our senior citizens. Volunteers are needed on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Meals are picked up at Fitch's IGA between 11:15 a.m. and noon. This will only take about 30 minutes of your time. Please call Connie at the Center for more information, or to volunteer. Free Bread!! Come to the Community Service Center on Saturdays for free bread from Panera Bread Company! All inquiries, please contact Connie Sunda, Executive Director Community Service Center of Wilmore-High Bridge at 858-2819.
