WNC Hospice details

Sharon spent the last week of her life at the SOLACE Center in Asheville NC. SOLACE is a beautifully designed Hospice "house" that facilitated an environment filled with family, friends and love. The great room and family style kitchen allowed the Wagner families to break bread and share memories. There is a secluded area to enjoy the out doors, take a stroll or play in the fountain.

The Sunday after Sharon's Asheville Celebration, Tim, Kristina, Jake, TJ, Isabelle & Alyson took some of the beautiful floral arrangements to SOLACE. The staff said that Sharon's family was special and they enjoyed having us there. What we know is that the staff at SOLACE is special, and we'll always be thankful!

On more than one occasion, there were 3 grandkids under the age of 2 who were eating meals from their strollers. That's how the idea came about to donate 2 high chairs to SOLACE. James took care of the details and Tim made the donation last Tuesday*. The plaque on the back of each chair reads:

In loving memory of
Sharon "Gram" Wagner
