Hospice of Haines graciously thanks the Ripinsky Rippers! Ladies, your beautiful, handmade pillowcases are a most appreciated addition to our Hope Bags, which are also handmade by Ripper Rocki Rostad. Hospice of Haines delivers Hope Bags to community members who have lost a loved one. The bags contain items that encourage and comfort those struggling and coping with grief, such as reading materials specific to one’s loss, candles, journals, picture frames and, perhaps, material for children. We personalize them as much as possible. Your pillowcases add a needed, welcoming touch. Thank you for sharing your talents and your compassion!
