WHAT’S ON OUR MIND

While Fort Scott Presbyterian Village has a lot to offer, the residents and staff make it the exceptional place that it is. Their friendliness and compassion make our community a home. We love hearing stories that remind us why we work each day to carry out the mission and values that guide our community.

When family and friends gather for funeral or memorial services, they recount a lifetime of moments otherwise known as “the dash.” I’m sure your family is like mine and exactly what we remember about someone’s “dash” may differ from person to person, which makes total sense to me, since none of us approach the exact same story or experience at the exact same time, perspective or history. The greatest joy of being a Hospice Chaplain and a Heart & Soul Hospice Team member is helping families remember – and celebrate! – their loved one’s “dash”!

Life took Fort Scott Presbyterian Village residents Letha and Roy Johnson on a number of journeys throughout the years, but home has always been together and always led back to the Fort Scott community.
