Bugles! Batons and Badger Honor Flights!
Sister Georgeann plays taps on her bugle for Veteran’s Day. She
recalls serving as a drum majorette, twirling her baton for her high school
band. She has recently accompanied
veterans on Badger Honor flights to Washington DC. In Autumn on Friday nights
she can be found at the local high school football games. And she jogs three to
five miles a day and ten miles on weekends!
Not your everyday sister, Georgeann lives in Madison,
Wisconsin and is a hospice chaplain. In
a recent interview, she smiled and shared, “For me, my ministry is not
work. I feel privileged to provide
spiritual support and caring presence to hospice patients, their families, and
their friends, welcoming them and letting the mystery of their lives fill me.”
“Sister Georgeann is the calm in the storm, so positive,
compassionate, and understanding,” shared Rick Bourne, President and CEO of
Home Health United, where Sister currently works. “She has a wonderful sense of humor and is a
great comfort and calming presence to both staff and patients.”
Sister Georgeann’s idol is Mother Teresa…no surprise.
