Great place
A most helpful and caring place. Please call and find out how you can help support this wonderful organization. They do treat you like family. ❤
Rock River Hospice cared for my dad February 2020 ...amazing staff, caring, compassionate people. Rock River will take care of your loved one and take of you. ❤✝️
Wonderful asset for our community. My Dad passed in house there. The care was phenomenal!! Please volunteer or donate to this wonderful organization.
Lets not forget the original founder of our local Hospice. Marilyn Williams , a nurse from Rock Falls held the first organizational meeting. I was fortunate enough to be one of the first volunteers. No paid employees, all volunteers. Met in Marilyn’s house in Rock Falls. Circa 1985, not quite sure of the year. The most difficult but most rewarding work I have ever done.
Laurie Gingrich we are so very grateful for Marilyn and the many volunteers that gave their time, talents and service to the community. Without their vision we would not have had the foundation to serve today. As the current Executive Director I often speak of the group of individuals who began in the community providing care . We also have a recognition plaque in our facility so others will remember. Blessings to you.
