Two nurses, 2002
Anne Whitaker and a fellow oncology nurse left Fort Worth to start a hospice where they could give every family time. They rented two rooms above a shop on Barnard Street.
Our story
How we got here
Two nurses, a garden and the decision to stay small.
Our story
Twenty-three years by the river
The decision to stay small
In 2009, a regional chain offered to buy us. We said no, and capped caseloads instead. It's the most important decision we've made.
The house and garden, 2014
We moved into a limestone house with a garden. The memorial garden behind it now holds the names of everyone we've cared for.
Music, 2017
A retired music teacher offered to play harp at bedsides. Now a harpist and a cellist visit patients every week.
Twenty-three years, today
We're still small on purpose. The river still runs clear over the limestone, and we still come when we're called.
