    What a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing. There is a gentleman in our area whose wife taught him to quilt before she passed away. He read a story about a new mom who passed away while nursing her baby. She left several children and a devastated husband. This gentleman went over and asked for her clothes to make quilts for her children. There was enough for each child to have a quilt of his/her own out of their mother's clothes.

    Great story and even better cause. Hospice is the most underserved outreach that we have.
