To whom it may concern:
It is my pleasure to write a letter of reference for Mr. Patrick Voelkel. Pat is a volunteer for the Hospice of Chesapeake and was respite care volunteer for my late father who had Alzheimer’s. Pat came to our home for a couple of hours each week and relieved me from my care-giving duties giving me a much needed break.
Pat was very kind, always punctual and extremely compassionate. My dad enjoyed his visits with Pat as they either chatted or just sat and watched TV together. Even after Dad had to be moved to the Tate Hospice House in Linthicum, Maryland, Pat would drive up from his home in Annapolis to visit with Dad. In fact, Pat was there when my Dad passed away and provided great comfort to my family and me.
I was always at peace leaving Dad in Pat’s care and could take my time away with confidence knowing Dad was in good hands. I would not hesitate to recommend Pat Voelkel as a sitter for anyone’s loved one. He will always remain very dear to us for the level of comfort and care he provided for our Dad and our family.
Very sincerely,
LuAnn Davis
