The wife of the patient stated that nothing could have comforted her more than knowing Rochelle was willing to sing to her actively dying husband!
A hospice patient gets agitated at times, and his wife informed Rochelle that singing old hymns to her husband will calm him down. Rochelle asked her what type of hymns did he like and she said, "I know those," and promised to sing to him. The wife of the patient stated that nothing could have comforted her more than knowing Rochelle was willing to sing to her actively dying husband! While coming to thank Rochelle after meeting with the patient's wife, I found Rochelle in her patient's room singing to him.
