For the past 25 years, students have taken part in making greeting cards for local hospice patients. ... “Fifth graders are at an age where they may have already lost someone, or they may have someone who's sick, or they may have aging grandparents, so there's always concerns and questions,” said Dr. Amy Mestemaker, medical director of Mercy Health Hospice. “If we can help support them or help them better understand the process, we want to do that.”
