Staff, volunteers, residents, and even their family and friends celebrated “Christmas in July” on July 25th with gifts, treats and even a visit from the big man himself, Santa Claus! At Morning Light, we recognize that holidays are limited for our hospice residents and we wanted the give them the chance to celebrate the Christmas season.

The staff decorated the Home for holidays in the middle of the night to surprise the residents when they woke up. Each resident received a personalized gift from Santa himself - an air force veteran hat for Dewey, chocolate for Jim, a t-shirt for Richard, an indoor gardening kit for Dixie...

The residents enjoyed a fest of fried chicken, potatoes, biscuits, Christmas cookies and peppermint stick ice cream with holiday music playing in the backround! It was certainly a magical day for everyone involved.
