“I decided to leave a gift in my Will to the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation (now Comox Valley Healthcare Foundation) as a simple way to say ‘thank you’ to the community I have called home since 1980.”

This community has given me so much, from my career in recreation and the small retail business my husband began and grew, to the wealth of friends we’ve made. I have been blessed with an absolute quality of life in the Comox Valley, and by leaving a gift in my Will, I can help improve the quality of life for others who live here, too, long after I’m gone. That’s the legacy I choose to leave behind.
