Hospice Calgary and Holiday Wishes

Robert Vidra carves the turkey at Hospice Calgary's Christmas Dinner 2009

This week, as we have done for the last few years, we were honoured to provide a traditional Christmas dinner with all the trimmings for the residents and staff of Hospice Calgary. We were touched by the gratitude of the residents and humbled by ongoing work of the staff who tirelessly meet the needs of others in what is a very trying time.

For more than 30 years, Hospice Calgary has provided end of life and bereavement care, helping people live life to the fullest, offering dignity, comfort and understanding. We salute them for the extraordinary work they do, and we look forward to supporting their fundraising efforts through their annual walk.

It is the season for reflection, and so my thoughts also turn to the last year and to so many of the treasured moments and important events our clients trusted us with. I think back to 12 months ago when the future seemed less certain and no one was sure if the economy would hold. It did — and we made it through, together, with grace and a full order of style.

Thank you for trusting us with the corporate and personal occasions that mattered most to you. We will never take that trust for granted.

So as we look ahead, we wish you the happiest of holidays and a prosperous new year.  We hope we have the privilege of helping you with your event, private party and catering needs in coming year.

Here’s to Great Things in 2010!
