We are a Home, not a facility.
We are a home, not a facility. Yet it’s a home where there is ample support. The social environment is one of caring, and offers emotional support for the families. The volunteers of the Toni and Trish House provide personal, selfless, compassionate care to each guest in a home-like environment.
A physical environment that is bright, clean, and not “institutional” is also very important. The home has space for six guests, a spacious kitchen, a common living room, a chapel, and a laundry.
End of Life Care
As the end of life approaches, each family’s story is different. A person can linger, gradually fading away or death can be sudden. End-of-life care describes the support and medical care given during the time surrounding one’s death. Such care does not happen in the moments before death. Care can be needed for days, weeks, and sometimes even months.
Grief Support Groups
Support groups are a method of help for people struggling with all sorts of difficulties. Many individuals wonder if they will benefit from a support group, but groups are not magic, there are no words that can be spoken within a group that can make grief disappear. For many a support group can be a break from the loneliness and the boredom that often comes with grief.
Children's Grief Center
Children experience fewer deaths due to modern medicine that has helped in reducing child mortality and prolong the life expectancy for the elderly. More and more people die in nursing homes and hospitals that are outside the home environment. The exclusion of death from children’s lives requires us to teach them about death and grief.
Care of Your Loved Ones
Our caregivers show love, care, and comfort to those who stay with us throughout the dying process.
Providing our guests and their families with home cooked meals, companionship, and a special place to spend quality time with their loved ones.

When our guests and their families come to the Toni and Trish House, they are part of our family and our home becomes their home. This December, we invite you to come back home. Our Luminary Lighting is December 15th at 6pm. Please stop by the house if you’d like to get a luminary bag to decorate in memory for a loved one. Even if you don’t have a luminary bag, please join us on the 15th as we remember and celebrate the lives of those we love.
Welcome home. ... See MoreSee Less

In a few weeks many of us will gather to enjoy a meal and perhaps even another Lions win! Here at the Toni and Trish House, our guests, their families, volunteers and staff will be celebrating Thanksgiving here at the House. We are so thankful to LaLonde’s Market for sponsoring our Thanksgiving dinner this year. We’ve received some other Thanksgiving donations that we’ll combine with the dinner, and we also have a few gracious volunteers who will spend Thanksgiving morning preparing the meal.
At the Toni and Trish House, we have so much to be thankful for! ... See MoreSee Less
