“Happy” Kelley

When Jones Memorial Hospital Auxiliary’s Hemlock Twig received a donation in memory of Gladys “Happy” Kelley, the group asked for a “wish list” of items that would benefit the patients. From that list, the group decided on a Roku for the hospice room, four pill crushers, and three activity aprons, which are specially designed for patients with dementia. The aprons have ties, zippers, and buttons to keep the patient’s hands busy.
