Good Shepherd Hospice Memorial Garden, Hendricks Community Hospital Association
T
he creation of the Good Shepherd Hospice
Memorial Garden began in 2010 as the result of
generous donations from the community and some
planning from Kathy Weber, Manager of Hospice, and
Gwen Meyer, Hospice Volunteer Coordinator.
The garden evolved from a hot enclosed cement
area to a spiritual sanctuary of beauty and grandeur.
The environment, colors, textures, fragrances, sounds
of water, birds and insects, holiday lighting, flowers
blooming, trees of shade, and vegetables to harvest truly
make the space a garden of four seasons. It represents
the cycle of life which is a symbolic theme within the
hospice program.
“
“
The incredible generosity of the community
makes it possible to reward the hospice
with a garden many people enjoy.
- Gwen Meyer - Social Services
The garden is enjoyed by nursing home residents,
hospital patients, Villa tenants, hospice patients &
families, visitors of all ages, employees and is also
available for hosting events. The funds come from
memorial donations, and fundraiser events such as the
Tour of Tables and the Hospice Golf Tournament.
Volunteers and donations are vital to the health, success
and maintenence of the garden. If you or someone you
know would like to volunteer time and gardening skills to
the Good Shepheard Hospice Memorial Garden, please
contact Kathy or Gwen at 507-275-3134.

Lincoln Lane Villa
Auxiliary Donation
improves many dynamics
You wouldn’t think replacing dining room furniture would be a necessity or have any
impact on improving lives, but the purchase of new furniture at Lincoln Lane Villa has
changed a lot of dynamics. “The new furniture is easy to care for, easy to clean and
lighweight to easily move around.” says Lori Pederson, Lincoln Lane Villa Universal
Worker.
“These chairs have arms so I can get up and down now. The tables are smaller than
the old ones so we are closer to each other now and can hear one another better. Also,
we can reach better when we play cards. The new furniture is beautiful and much more
comfortable. It’s really nice especially when I have company and family visiting,” says
Pearl Bauman, Villa tenant.
“I spend more time outside of my apartment now. I don’t like to eat by myself in my
apartment and since the new furniture arrived, it is more comfortable in the dining room,
so I don’t spend much time by myself anymore,” says Mavis Kirkvold, Villa tenant.
The addition of community
furniture at Lincoln Lane
Villa was made possible by
Auxiliary donations created by
donated items and sales at
This Ol’ Place Thrift Shoppe in
downtown Hendricks, MN. The
furniture is used for activities
such as:
• Meals & snacks
• Auxiliary meetings
• Crafts
• Volunteer meetings
• Cards & board games
• Open house celebrations
• Family time
• Birthday parties
• Painting
• Holiday parties
• Guest speakers
• Coffee breaks
• Manicures
• Social gathering area
Foundation Provides Tools of
TECHNOLOGY
Cutting edge technology is necessary and vital to providing quality
healthcare to patients. The Foundation recently purchased a series
of scopes: an Endoscope, Colonoscope, Gastroscope, and monitor
equipment.
“The new equipment has created a tremendous improvement in
the quality of care during procedures for our patients and medical
providers,” says Nancy Anderson, Surgery Manager and Outreach
Clinic Coordinator. “The new equipment also creates more
availability of services to our patients.”

TOUR
of Tables
The Tour of Tables event is the
premier fundraising event for the
Good Shepherd Hospice. The event
is scheduled for Saturday, April 20,
2013 at Christ Lutheran Church in
Hendricks. All of the proceeds from
ticket sales, raffles and the auctions
go directly to support our hospice
program for the care and benefit of
hospice patients and their families.
Good Shepherd Hospice serves a 30- Photo: Dian Gackstetter, Dawn Popowski, Kathy Weber,
mile radius around Hendricks, MN. In Gwen Meyer, and Jessi Olson.
2012, Good Shepherd Hospice cared
for 23 terminally ill patients in Minnesota and South Dakota and provided
support to many of their extended family members. Services are provided
wherever the patient resides, whether it is their own home, nursing home, or
hospital setting. Without the caring and supportive contributions of persons
like you, specialized equipment and resources would not always be possible.
The Tour of Tables event is the primary source of annual donations and has
been very successful over the eight-year span. The event continues to grow.

MuellerSCHOLARSHIP FUND
The late Dr. LeRoy Mueller himself was a recipient of
scholarships that helped him through his education.
When Dr. Mueller retired, he didn’t want a retirement
party, so the HCHA Governing Board decided to
create a scholarship fund in his honor, the Mueller
Scholarship Fund. The scholarship was created to
improve education opportunities for area students and
employees who are pursuing educational goals in the
health care industry.

It’s a wonderful service
having the beauticians

Hospice Golf Tournament
In August 2012, family and friends of all ages, from Hendricks and surrounding
communities, non-golfers, beginner golfers and veteran golfers gathered at the
Hendricks Golf Course for a great Friday of golf for a great cause. Over $4500 in
proceeds were raised and presented to the Good Shepherd Hospice. The overall
golf tournament winner was Team Pitzl. Members include Russ & Linda Pitzl,
son Jay Pitzl and granddaughter Emma Pitzl. A burger bar was also enjoyed by
the crowd with proceeds amounting over $1200 which benefited the Hendricks
Ambulance Service.

Receives Equipment Funds
Hendricks Ambulance Service received emergency medical
equipment because of donations from the Hospice Golf
Tournament Burger Bar. Burger bar purchases from
golfers and their families at the Hendricks Golf Club
helped fund new emergency equipment which is very
beneficial to the emergency medical patients.

Mammography
The arrival of the Philips MicroDose
Digital Mammography equipment in
October 2012 has brought a burst in
the number of patients coming in for
their screening exam at the Radiology
Department at Hendricks Hospital. There
have been new patients coming from as
far as Canby and Brookings to have their
mammography screening with HCHA’s
new Philips MicroDose machine.
“
“This, compared to the old mammography
machine, is fast. The patient is exposed to
50% less radiation and the image quality
is outstanding,” says Falon Murphy,
Radiology Department Manager at HCHA.
That was fast. I love
the new room and
comfortable environment.
The new machine allows
me to see my images
right away.

The standard and quality of women’s
preventative healthcare are much improved
with the addition of the Philips MicroDose
Digital Mammography system, made
available through the generous donations
of the Foundation and Auxiliary.
Charitable
Giving
Do you ask yourself, “What
could I have done differently?
Just how much income tax am
I paying each year? Isn’t there
something I can do to reduce
that gift to Uncle Sam?” If
these are questions you ask at
tax time, consider a charitable
gift.
OPTIONS:
• Will or Trust Bequest
• Beneficiary Designation
• Life Insurance Gift
• Gift Annuity
• Zero-estate-tax Gift
• Traditional IRA Gift
• Donor-advised Fund
• Charitable Remainder Trust
There are an infinite number
of charities and organizations
competing for your donation.
When considering your gifting
options, remember those
organizations and charities
that are important to you, your
family, and your community.

This Ol’ Place Thrift Shoppe
Since February 26, 1994, This Ol’ Place Thrift Shoppe has been alive and running
entirely with volunteer power. Betty Buseth and Gloria Mueller influenced the HCHA

donation dollars for HCHA.
The funds raised over the years total over $350,000 and are used for
purchasing equipment at HCHA. Purchases such as: wheelchairs,
a bell-call system, furniture, surgical equipment and a MicroDose
Mammography system have made a huge impact in serving patients.
The items purchased benefit the entire community.
Items available for purchase at the Thrift Shoppe include a huge
assortment of articles like books, glassware, clothing, jewelry, kitchen
items, toys, and many treasures.
