Kickoff Luncheon for ‘Celebrazione della Cura’

The Washington Home and Community Hospices will celebrate the 125th anniversary of providing healthcare services for aging, chronically and terminally ill area residents at the Embassy of Italy on April 26. In anticipation, a kick-off luncheon was held at the George Town Club. CEO Tim Cox welcomed guests and acknowledged club board president Sharon Casey. The only in-patient hospice facility in D.C. gives “people the opportunity to make memories until the very end.” Guests shared their personal experiences and raised a glass to Tandy and Wyatt Dickerson, who were celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary, and to the birthday of photographer Neshan Naltchayan.
