National Volunteer Week, which was April 27 through May 3, was marked at VNA Hospice by honoring individuals named Volunteer of the Day.
Susan Hoffman of Sikeston, Mo., was honored for the care she demonstrates as a hospice volunteer. Debbie Cato of Cape Girardeau was recognized for her kindness toward a 7-year-old boy and his family. Judy Morrow of Sikeston's Chamber of Commerce is known for her smile and understanding.
"I wish I could recognize all of our volunteers for the outstanding compassion and love they bring to our families," said Linda Biggs, VNA hospice volunteer coordinator. "A thank you from us and those they serve is the only pay they receive for the unlimited love they give."
