A legacy of love made possible by our community.

We’re honored to share the story of Bruce and Marie Pethe — a powerful reminder of the heart of hospice care and the impact of your support. When both parents were diagnosed with terminal illnesses just months apart, the Pethe family faced unimaginable heartbreak.

But thanks to benevolent support from donors like you, Corewell Health Hospice and Palliative Care stepped in with expert, compassionate care — at no cost to the family. Bruce spent his final days at Hanson Hospice Center, surrounded by love and dignity. Later, Marie was cared for in her beloved “butterfly room,” where the family could simply be present and say goodbye with grace.

Your generosity made this possible. Benevolent care ensures that families across Southwest Michigan receive hospice and palliative support regardless of their ability to pay — turning moments of heartbreak into sacred time for love, connection, and peace.

Every gift helps ensure no one faces the end of life alone or without comfort. Donate here: https://corewellhealth.org/foundation/southwest

Here in Southwest Michigan, your support through the Oncology Fund helps local patients in powerful ways - including covering the cost of screening mammograms for individuals who are uninsured, underinsured or facing high deductibles. These screenings are critical for early detection, which can lead to better outcomes and longer, healthier lives.
