Volunteers at Prairie Lakes Healthcare System make a difference in the lives of patients and their visitors every day. Today we recognize the contributions of Karol Gruenberg.
Karol has contributed twenty years of volunteering to Prairie Lakes Hospice. For the past five years she has made plastic canvas cross artwork for the Patient and Family Spiritual Resource Packet. Her donation immediately became a well treasured item among patients; hanging in windows at nursing homes, patient homes, and hospital rooms. Karol recently reached a huge milestone, she completed her one thousandth cross. One thousand regional families have found comfort through her crosses. Each cross takes Karol about three hours to make; meaning she has spent three thousand hours making these treasured crosses. Thank you, Karol for your gift of time and passion.
