Eunice has always had a heart for cats. For years, her home was never without the warmth of a feline companion curled up nearby. When she moved into an adult care home, she had to let go of that daily comfort, but her love for animals never left her.

On August 7th, that love came full circle. With the generosity of Noah and Julia at Snick’s Cat Cafe, Eunice spent the afternoon surrounded once more by the animals that bring her the greatest joy. There were soft purrs, gentle cuddles, laughter, and the kind of happiness that words can’t quite capture.

Her daughter, Edie, describes her as “one of the best humans I’ve ever known.” To many others, Eunice is remembered as an active Red Hat Lady who filled her days with friendship, fun, and kindness.

This is the very heart of hospice care. It is not just about adding days to life, but about filling life with moments that matter. Moments like this, holding a cat again, smiling until your cheeks ache, and knowing you are surrounded by love, become treasured memories for patients and families to carry forever.

We are deeply grateful to Snick’s Cat Cafe for helping make this wish a reality and giving Eunice a day that will never be forgotten.

•Quick to connect—quick to care

On Friday, May 16th, we had the honor of making a wish come true for our patient, Sgt. Major Richard Metts, during Military Night at Equity Bank Stadium. As a proud Army Veteran and former college baseball player, Richard was chosen to throw the first pitch at the Wichita WindSurge game.

Richard’s journey is one of courage and commitment. After earning a baseball scholarship to the University of North Carolina, he chose to serve his country, enlisting in the U.S. Army in 1983. “Give me something hard to do,” he said, and he meant it. He became an Army Ranger, serving across the globe for over 26 years, including tours in Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan, the Gulf War, and Operation Desert Storm.

This night was about more than baseball. It was about honoring a life of service, sacrifice, and strength.

Thank you to Equity Bank Stadium, Medicalodges of Goddard, and our team for making this incredible evening possible. And most of all, thank you, Sgt. Major Metts, for your service.

Hospice is about living fully and creating meaningful moments, and this was certainly one of them.
