Adams Memorial Hospital is partnering with Everence Financial to host "Walking Life's Journey," a free three-part series. This program is designed to help individuals and families thoughtfully prepare for end-of-life care, estate planning, and final arrangements.

After a successful series earlier this year at the Merit Center, we are excited to share they are offering this valuable resource again at Adams Memorial Hospital. It is a wonderful opportunity for people of all ages to learn and plan, and they’ll be providing coffee and cookies for all attendees!

If you have any questions, please reach out to Adam Stout at 260-589-2114. We hope you attend!
